Megathread Gadfly
Still too early to judge. But we're still without a pure goal scorer of Zadina's type and upside on either our roster or in the pipeline. And that's pretty much been a problem ever since Keith Tkachuk left the desert.
Not to dismiss Hayton's strong D+1 year, but Zadina had a solid rookie season in Grand Rapids, and will still likely make more of an immediate impact for the Wings than Hayton will for us.
Zadina’s 8 game tryout run with the Wings right after the TDL ended up 1-1-2 with 15 SOG and a -5.
Not exactly setting the world on fire.
