yea i grew up watching him and loved watching yzerman

Veleno assigned to juniors..

Zadina has to stay

wings unstoppable preseason

Just a reminder that the Lions were 4-0 during the preseason that preceded their 0-16 season lol.

I'm hopeful though.

Lol this was exactly what i thought haha, Zadina needs to put on some muscle and get some confidence going still a young gun

Vanek and Anthanesiou look quite strong, Larkin seems to speak confidently of stepping up as Captain in Zetterberg's absence

Avs went undefeated 2 years ago in the preseason. Had the worst record since the salary cap era. Went winless in last year's preseason and made it to the playoffs. Preseason is a joke

Zadina sent down to minors, maybe rassmussen fills his spot not sure

He’s in tonight’s line-up, also wouldn’t he be returned to junior?

Nah he can play in the AHL since he's an European who was loaned to the CHL.

He was projected to be starting in the NHL, now sent down to minors.

"It is being indicated that Filip Zadina will start the season in Grand Rapids of the AHL.

Advice: The supremely talented sixth overall pick in this past June's NHL Draft has been inconsistent in the preseason and could use a little more fine-tuning before being ready to contribute with the Red Wings. That said, monitor Zadina carefully as he has the potential to be potent scorer."
