I remember being very impressed with his puck carrying ability a few training camps ago. Seemed like a high skill forward. I thought he would pan out but seeing the way Lafreniere is struggling makes me think Zav might not have all the tools necessary to make it. Zav's compete level seems to be less Mangiapane and more Ryan Howse.
He has 1 more year on his ELC but I wonder if this is the last we see of him in North America.
