Team needs a top 9 center even with Zajac healthy. So when him or Nico get hurt, they are completely f'd. Don't know what many of you expect?
Too many eggs in the Zacha basket heading into this season just because they got away with it last year. Pretty crazy a guy with "a great shot" has 9 ES goals in 146 NHL games.
It was scary hearing Shero echo the ridiculous Couturier comparison I've argued against with most of this board for a while now. Couts had 30 ES goals in his first three seasons while successfully playing a shutdown role and receiving Selke votes....
Anyway, the Devs desperately need Zacha to be a 20/20 guy this season so his line can take some heat off Nico's. Like it or not, the Devs aren't going to surprise anyone this year. So let's hope Zacha can turn it around. He had a nice shot off the right wing today at least. But aside from the opener (I think) and his solid PK play, he hasn't been good enough.
