Will be fun watching him round out his game in the AHL this year. Definitely flying a bit under the radar here. Honestly I think Ruzicka, Koumontzsiz, and Yeselin are all better prospects than little Z. I think CP has gotten too enamored with small skilled guys this year ie) Z, Phillips, Petterson.
Not that they are bad prospects, but some bigger guys are getting overlooked a tad by comparison.

Good point, kind of forogt about him.
Ruzicka seem to had issues showing up every game with the Sarnia Sting. Had a terrible playoffs two seasons ago, but the change of teams last season really helped him for whatever reason.
