Quoting: Bennecon
Comparing him to chara is crazy. Chara was on of the leagues best defencemen.
Zadorov plays about 18 minutes a night and isn’t really the best defender. Where as Schenn is a better defender.
Obviously u haven’t seen Schenn play in the last 2 years cause I would rather have Schenn than zadorov.
It’s also a pretty big negative that ur 3rd pair defender make almost 4 mil so he has to be retained to fit anywhere.
No chance he’s even worth a first.
Only way flames get that is
Zadorov 50% retained plus a 3rd
For
A late first.
Even that is too much
You do you man, I’ll take Zadorov who is Underrated Defensively, but is Much Bigger and can Skate and Puck Handle from end line to end line like a Forward all day, every day
No, he’s not near as good Defensively as Chara, but if he was given 20-22+ minutes a night and some PP Time, which is what he wants and why he’s frustrated, he would easily put up 40-50 Points in a Season. He’s seriously improved since joining the Flames and continues to get better. He does make Defensive Fumbles and Mistakes though, yes
You might be the only person who’d want Schenn over Zadorov; certainly no GM would take Schenn over Zadorov given the choice between the two
Schenn’s an AHL’er at this point man. He only did well playing with Quinn Hughes. He sucked for TOR and played 1 Game for NSH this season, so that’s proof right there. He Sucks and again, is basically just a Big Nasty Goon of a Pylon at this point in his career
With Retention, Zadorov will bring a 1st, without, maybe not. There’s a ton of Demand for Big-Z around the League. He’s very desirable and GM’s and Players alike salivate over having a Guy like Zadorov on their Team, especially when he’s good in all 3 Zones, not just standing in Front of the Net or on the PK like your Boy Schenn is only good for
