Thanks. Didn't know he was used as a PKer too, so if his offense never comes at least there's that. Oilers are looking for a shooting options if he Zacha ever gets around to using it more. Honestly, there could be a fit here.
Isn't he more on the wing than centre lately ?
He does both with an incredible level of consistent mediocrityIsn't he more on the wing than centre lately ?

yes...you do not want him playing center.

That's fair.Yeah you want no part of him in the middle.
It took a long time.Wow NJ fans are pretty unified in their opinion on Zacha. Don't think id ever see that in Edmonton.
I'm probably one of the very few supporters of his left. Getting that out of the way he's the most frustrating player I've seen on this team in a long time. There are games, maybe even a weeks worth of games, where you see him and it looks like he's turned the corner and he dominates. Then there are stretches that are sometimes 20-30 games where he floats, looks disinterested and not motivated. I think a change of scenery will do him very well. However, he just truly seems to not care far too often. If you put his body and skill in the head of someone who has a far better work ethic he'd be a beast. He's just too passive and lacks that extra gear you'd come to expect from a NHLer.Man NJ has soured on this kid. Can he be that bad?
Someone throw up a scoring report, be honest!
He just hasn't progressed as a player in years. He's good to stick on your PP2 and PK but unless he's being carried by Hischier and Bratt, he just provides nothing at even strength aside from his great shot, which he doesn't let rip nearly enough (and I'm not one of those people that thinks you should just shoot at every opportunity).Wow NJ fans are pretty unified in their opinion on Zacha.

Is there a deal to be made with Florida?
We could use somebody with size, speed, and finish in our bottom 6. He'll be playing with linemates who are better than him, so he won't have to create anything.
Interesting. Thank you. Seems like a motor and motivation issue. Have a sense of the type of project he’d be now.I'm probably one of the very few supporters of his left.

Oilers fans like what we see in the highlights of his shooting. But out course highlights are account for 5% of the ice time actually played. We’ve been looking for a shooter for while though if we can ever unlock that in him, it might work…?He just hasn't progressed as a player in years.

I’m down with that . I’m hoping for Puljujarvi . Add if need be on our (Devils)Eller for Zacha please and thank you.

Foegele or Barrie for Zacha from EDM... Not Puljujarvi...
Puljujarvi for M.Mcleod
