San Jose Sharks center Tomas Hertl on Filip Zadina: “He wants to prove to everybody why he was drafted high”
San Jose Sharks’ Filip Zadina scores a goal against the Vegas Golden Knights in the first period at the SAP Center in San Jose, Calif., on Thursday, Oct. 12, 2023. Between the NHL and AHL, the Sharks organization has over 20 players on expiring contracts, including 10 who are set to become unrestricted free agents next summer. Some will land big paydays. Others might simply be hoping for another deal.
In 190 games with the Red Wings, Zadina had just 28 goals and 40 assists, totals not commensurate with a sixth-overall draft pick. One can quibble with how Zadina was developed after he was taken by the Wings in 2018 but had he stayed in Detroit, there’s a chance he would have been placed on waivers this season and assigned to the AHL.
Playing on the Sharks’ top line with Hertl and Mike Hoffman, Zadina had four shots on net and had 16:21 of ice time, more than he had in any of his 30 games last season with the Red Wings when he had three goals and seven points.

But to it put into greater perspective, Zadina is still less than three years older than some of the Sharks’ top prospects in forwards William Eklund, Thomas Bordeleau, and defensemen Shakir Mukhamadullin, who are all 21.
