Bob Long Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I wonder if not signing him right away cheesed him off a bit? dunno, the money certainly wasn't far off. But now he's dead to be. He's a filthy Bruin, I wish him only hockey agony and disappointment now. Unless we trade for him down the road, then he'll be great again. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks offered the same contract as what he accepted from Boston. Zadorov just chose to turn it down because he didn't want to be here. That's why Allvin stated very clearly in the presser that Zadorov has chosen to go somewhere else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DeNiro Posted July 2 Popular Post Share Posted July 2 My biggest disappointment is that the Canucks Oilers games just won’t have the same level of rivalry. Watching Zadorov and Kane go at each other was so much fun. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCupSyndrome Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 Donnie on also mentioned on 650 that there was some sense from the team that they were worried about Zadorov getting too comfortable. That is, getting a pay day and not having the same level of commitment during the year. His playoff performance is definitely hard to separate from long-term rationale planning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Deadmonton gets their wish of trading away Kane, even if we signed Zadorov, them going at each other would not have happened either during our games next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See how he lines up , one journalist thought he’d get the chance to play alongside McEvoy (aprx 9:50). Boston Fans have a beauty , never a dull moment, great interviews, and a Boston Style Game . 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-23 Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 If we didn’t have the OEL buyout, they probably sign Zadorov. I like what we did with our forward group today, have to wait and see how the defence looks next season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite Zadorovs end of season interviews, he didn't actually want to be here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 100% I bet they looked at Z's history with previous teams and saw that his energy slowly drops the longer he stays with a team. That's why he seems to get moved every 2 years. Z likely wanted to get paid for what he did in the playoffs for 6 years. Canucks probably scoured years of video and came to the decision that Z is a 5/6 guy 90% of the time. I'm thankful we don't have z tied up long term at $5m. A couple big hits a year isn't worth anywhere near that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
