Shit. He cleared waivers. No one wants him. We are stuck with him.

That's not a bad thing. He is still talented.

Let Zadina come to training camp and fight for a job. Let him learn what it means to really compete at the NHL level. Ultimately, the Wings can use the depth at Grand Rapids, and maybe the new coach there can tap into something that Zadina hasn’t shown before.

As I said in my OP - good riddance. I hope the door does hit him in the ass.

So Zadina lands on his feet in San Jose. One year deal for a little over a million bucks.
It'll be interesting to see how he does there. San Jose's top two centers are Logan Couture (27G+40A=67P) and Tomas Hertl (22G+41A=63P), both lagging behind Larkin's numbers. Zadina had trouble scoring no matter who he was paired with in Detroit, so assuming he gets a top-six role with the Sharks (not a guarantee), it's tough to see his numbers improving since San Jose seems to have more trouble with overall scoring than even the Wings.
