Filip Zadina Placed On Injured Reserve, Sharks Sign Justin Bailey
San Jose Sharks winger Filip Zadina (upper body) has been placed on IR with an undisclosed injury. Zadina has been dealing with a nagging injury that forced him out of last Friday's game early and also held him out of Saturday's game. He will now take some time off, which may be good for him considering he only has five points in 20 games so far this season. The Sharks signed veteran forward Justin Bailey to take Zadina's spot. Bailey has had good seasons in the past, but he hasn't been that player for a while and doesn't hold any fantasy value.
San Jose Sharks right wing Filip Zadina exited Friday's 3-2 shootout loss to Montreal with an upper-body injury. According to Sharks head coach David Quinn, it's been a nagging issue for the Czech winger. Zadina has featured in all 20 games so far but could now be out for Saturday's clash with Vancouver. The 23-year-old has scored three goals and boasts two assists from the season. San Jose's top goal-scorer, Mike Hoffman, is a strong candidate to replace Zadina on the first line on Saturday.
San Jose Sharks right wing Filip Zadina was hurt in Wednesday's preseason encounter with the Ducks and was forced to leave the game in the third period. This was a tough night all around for the Czech winger, as he finished the contest with a minus-two rating and had very little impact on the ice, producing only one shot on goal in 17:32 of action. According to reports, Zadina escaped serious injury, which is great news for the 23-year-old, who is looking to kickstart his career in San Jose after agreeing to terminate his contract with the Red Wings this offseason. San Jose also lost defenseman Radim Simek (lower body) to injury in Wednesday's game.
San Jose Sharks right wing Filip Zadina is confident he can ignite his NHL career following his offseason move from Detroit. "I've just got to stay healthy," Zadina said at the NHL European Player Media Tour. "Once I stay healthy the whole season, for the future, it will come. I believe I'm a good player. I'm strong and fast. I can shoot the puck. I can pass the puck. I have the tools that I needed to have, and it's just about staying healthy and play hockey and have fun." Zadina was a top-six pick by the Red Wings at the 2018 NHL Draft, but he never really got going in Motown. The 23-year-old had 28 goals and 68 points in 190 games with the Red Wings before he agreed to terminate his contract with the team this summer.
The Detroit Red Wings have waived winger Filip Zadina, who has endured a rough start to his NHL career. The 6th pick of the 2018 draft boasts only 28 goals and 68 points through 190 career games. Red Wings executive vice president and general manager Steve Yzerman noted on Monday that the 23-year-old asked for a trade through his agent, but the team was unable to find a suitable deal. The Czech winger signed a three-year, $5.475 million contract extension just last summer, and he currently isn't a very attractive piece for any team after having a horrible season with only seven points in 30 games.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina will sit out Saturday's game against Philadelphia with a lower-body injury. The former top-six pick is considered day-to-day by the team. Zadina has found his way on the score sheet in each of the last two games, but the 2023-23 campaign as a whole has been another disappointing season for him, as the 23-year-old has put up only three goals and seven assists in 30 games. Zadina will have his first opportunity to return Tuesday versus Pittsburgh.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina will rejoin the lineup Thursday against Calgary. He's fresh back from a conditioning stint in the AHL and will make his first NHL appearance since Nov. 5. Zadina suffered a broken leg in a game against the Islanders when he was hit by a puck. The former sixth-overall pick will make his 10th appearance of the season Thursday and is still looking for his first points of the campaign. He is slated to skate on the fourth line, with Dominik Kubalik sitting out the evening as a healthy scratch.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina was hurt in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Islanders, and he is expected to be out for "a period of time" with a lower-body injury. The Czech youngster got injured whilst blocking a shot and ended up skating for just over 12 minutes. Zadina has been disappointing again early in 2022-23, going scoreless in eight games, despite finding himself in a very good situation to perform. The team has lost multiple wingers to injuries, but Zadina has failed to grab his opportunity to impress in a bigger role. It now looks like his next chance will come a long way down the road.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina has signed a new three-year deal with the team with an average annual value of $1.825 million. The 22-year-old was a restricted free agent after coming off his three-year, entry-level contract. The sixth pick of the 2018 NHL Draft has been one of Detroit's most promising prospects, but he's yet to make a big impact in the league, recording only 25 goals and 61 points in 160 appearances. The new deal shows that the Red Wings still have faith in him and Zadina definitely has the ability to be a productive scorer in the league. However, you can't score if you don't play and Zadina averaged just a little over 14 minutes of ice time during a 24-point campaign in 2021-22. Things could be very different for him in 2022-23 with a new head coach in town in Derek Lalonde.
Filip Zadina Set For First-Line Role Against Flyers
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina is set to join Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond on the first line for Tuesday's matchup against Philadelphia. He'll take over from Vladislav Namestnikov, who was sent to Dallas on Monday for a 2024 fourth-round pick. Zadina is a very talented player but things haven't quite happened for him in the NHL yet. He's notched eight goals and 20 points in 60 appearances this season. Zadina will have a great opportunity to boost his numbers if he sticks with Larkin and Raymond for a good stretch of games. Tuesday's matchup is a juicy one against a team that gives up 3.39 goals per game.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina has become the team's sixth player on the COVID-19 list. He joins goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic and fellow forwards Robby Fabbri, Michael Rasmussen, Givani Smith and Carter Rowney. The talented youngster had just started to benefit from the situation, logging 17-plus minutes for only the second time since the start of November in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Carolina. The 22-year-old will now have to patiently wait for his chance to add to the 10 points he's amassed in 30 games this season.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina managed to end a quiet November on a high, scoring his fourth goal of the season in Tuesday's 2-1 win over Boston. He opened the scoring 5:03 into the second period and Marc Staal ended up providing the game-winner 11:33 into the third. Zadina scored with his only shot and he also had one hit in 12:23 of ice time. The talented Czech winger managed to pick up just three points in November. He sits on eight points for the whole campaign with 23 games played. It's not been a great year for Zadina, and he's even been moved to the fourth line, but the goal should do wonders for his confidence and there's still a lot of time to turn things around.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina opened the scoring in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Florida, netting his first goal of the season. Dylan Larkin registered the only assist on the play. Zadina had two shots in total in 17:10 of ice time. Anthony Mantha, who was a healthy scratch for Sunday's 4-1 victory over the Panthers, returned to the lineup and registered a team-high four shots in 17:43. Zadina is now up to four points in seven games with eight shots and a plus-three rating. He has slowly started to pick up steam after missing a lengthy period due to health protocols.
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina looks set to return to the lineup on Friday against Tampa after rejoining practice on Thursday. Zadina, who hasn't played since Jan. 19, managed four games this season before entering the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list with a host of teammates. He has only two points and two shots for the year, but Zadina is a highly rated prospect who looked very promising during his 28-game stint in the NHL last season, and he is one of the biggest goal-scoring threats on this poor Red Wings team.
Detroit Red Wings forward Filip Zadina isn't expected to dress as his team visits the Tampa Bay Lightning for another divisional contest on Wednesday. The 21-year-old, who hasn't played a game in 15 days due to being out on Covid-protocol, is instead expected to be ready to go on Friday versus the Bolts. Expected to jump back into a top-six forward role, Zadina is looking to build off a strong debut season with the Wings in 2019-2020 in which he posted 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in 28 tilts. It might take some time for Zadina to get back into top form but fantasy owners should keep tabs on the talented winger for a future add.
Filip Zadina Joins Detroit's Lengthy COVID-19 List
Detroit Red Wings winger Filip Zadina has been placed on the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list, joining teammates Sam Gagner, Joe Merrill, Robby Fabbri, and Adam Erne. The Red Wings lineup is really down to bare bones ahead of Friday's clash with the Blackhawks. Christian Djoos and Darren Helm are coming off the COVID-19 list, but head coach Jeff Blashill has said that the Swedish speedster needs at least a couple of weeks to get up to game speed. Djoos is set to take Merrill's spot in the lineup on Friday.
