Zadina’s AHL numbers didn’t blow anyone away, but he started to show improvements later in the season and had a couple of nice showings in the NHL. He’s not a favorite for the Calder Trophy, but he knows how to score.
No surprise that Zadina is the top rookie for the Red Wings. If Detroit has a fun and successful season, it likely means he’s doing well.
