I don't know, using the same logic the Flames didn't think highly of Gio. I get what you're saying though. Seattle didn't pick him so there can be an argument there. As for protecting Connor Murphy, Caleb Jones, and Riley Stillman I think team control played a big role in the selections. Both Jones and Stillman while not world beaters are younger. Murphy wears an A for them and they value him more. So yes they didn't value a year of Zadorov at around $3.5-4M(or they could've been afraid of arbitration), but that doesn't mean they don't think highly of Zadorov himself.
