Last I saw (somewhere on Socials, can’t remember off the top of my head), was that his agent was reporting he was close to signing a deal rather than taking a PTO (to which Buffalo was already excluded on that list)
burnSMACKER
We do not have the space on the roster for him
Jimbo_Imperador
As long as he fills the right goal w/pucks, sure why not
Logical-Asparagus-60
Having Demidov Caufield and Laine is great but getting a real net filler like Zadina could be huge for the habs

Where does Barta get off
fliegende_Scheisse
I think not. We should play some of the kids to see what they can bring.
Erelbor
I mean, why not? There is no risk

He has NHL experience, so he will count as a pro for the exhibition games. That is good enough for me.
Burgergold
That way he can fill our during practice in front of an empty net and then we release him
uknownick
He will finally put pucks into the net, in practice
Longshanks123
His agent said he’s signing a full contract somewhere

How fucking funny would it be if we did this and he somehow pans out better than KK?
ErnestTenser
I hope that lady kept the jersey
Plane-Ad4820
YESSSS. I’ve been calling for this. Sharks fan says he was serviceable and put forth effort. His age fits and he’s a cheap option that has long shot potential. I’m 100% for this

Watch him actually fulfill his potential under Marty. We deserve this timeline after enduring Bergevin for so long.
uncreativeusername31
can someone fill me in on why this is funny?
_Saputawsit_
If he can squeak out a 3rd line winger role and provide a bit of scoring upside with Newhook, I’m all for it.
But it does seem like a bit of a big if…

Finally, can’t wait to say “funky cold Zadina” when he scores
ozboner
He’s probably a better fit for bottom 6 than ABB. I wouldn’t mind pencilling him in as a 13th forward. Knowing our injury luck he’d get some decent playing time on the 4th line
Why the fuck not? No risk, low to medium reward. Marty can (maybe) fix him

I don’t see the harm. He either can’t hack it and he’s released, or he shows something and he’s a pleasant surprise and a cheap “veteran” piece.

Zadina playing chess to eventually play porous defense and “fill our net with pucks”
Foxy_Maitre_Renard
Sure. Then we get back KK and trade for Shane Wright. We’ll call it the “Bitter End”.

Reclamation project n+x
Also his agent said he was working on a contract.
Can we PLEASE stop trying to fix busts based on when they were drafted?

12th-worst advanced stats last year out of 540 forwards, and -44. That’s a no for me, dawg! Here are Zadina’s advanced stats last year from hockeystatcards [zadina advanced stats](https://www.hockeystatcards.com/skater?id=8480821)

Zadina would be much more of a reclamation project than any player taken so far. Given his obvious attitude issue, I don’t think that he would be a good fit even at the league minimum and he would take up one of Montreal’s precious 50 contracts allowed by the league. Perhaps an AHL contract?

This post is misleading. The tweet says he already signed a pto with the Buffalo Sabres and that the Habs had potentially been interested.

That would be hilarious
It all comes full circle.
We can fix him, we have the technology
At least he’ll have a lot of chances to put pucks in our net…in practice
Who is this and why does it look like a mugshot
