Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted February 9, 2008 I've been following this kid recently, and it seems like he has a good future. He's playing on one of the OHL's worst teams, the Erie Otters, yet is still 2nd in team scoring: 2007-2008 statistics Games played: 49 Goals: 16 Assists: 30 Points: 46 PIM: 65 +/-: -21 His +/- total scares me, but if you get this guy on a good team, I think he could florish, like Emmerton has after his trade. He's definitly a prospect to watch, in my opinion, and could be a late-bloomer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted February 9, 2008 His team is having an awful season, but he was expected to put up close to 100 points this season and he'll fall well short of that mark. He's picked up his play after a very slow start though which is pleasing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's picked up his play after a very slow start though which is pleasing. I think that if you get him out of Erie, he could still put up 60-70 points by the end of the season. He's not getting any help in his current situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted February 10, 2008 Agreed 100% Kp. I've liked this kid ever since we drafted him, hopefully he does get to a better team, for his own sake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted February 24, 2008 2 goals and an assist tonight for the Zack attack. He's up to 56 points from as many games. He has 5 games with 3 or more points, so he is capable of playing some big games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Pred 48 337 Report post Posted February 24, 2008 Maybe the Wings can get him traded to a contender as I would love to see what this kid could do on a more talented team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Pred 48 337 Report post Posted March 1, 2008 with Erie out of the playoffs, maybe the Griffs will give Zac a call in the next week or so? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted March 2, 2008 Wow, Zach's in some hot form right now. Another shorthanded goal tonight, to go with a PP assist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
al48 1 Report post Posted March 2, 2008 Wow, Zach's in some hot form right now. Another shorthanded goal tonight, to go with a PP assist. 3 SH goals and 1 assist in his last 2 games.....yeah, I'd agree that he's on fire. Plus, he drained the only goal in the shootout tonight.

al48 1 Report post Posted March 3, 2008 Another late round steal anyone? Tough to tell with the team he's playing on. I mean, they got blown out 10-5 today and are sitting dead last in the OHL. I wish he'd gotten traded to see what he can do playing on a better team. Maybe he'll get a chance to play a few games on the mighty Griffins though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted December 1, 2008 Given the dreadful season he's having, I doubt he'll even get a contract. But his last game was pretty impressive as he had two goals and... 3 - MISS Flemming, 4:27 - Fighting , 5 min 3 - ER Torquato, 4:27 - Fighting , 5 min I hope he keeps it up as I do like him.

I woudn't say "dreadful" season... 12 goals, 9 assists for 21 points in 25 games so far. Sure, he's a -3 (has 40 PIMs as well), but that's not too aweful bad on the the Erie team he is playing for. I mean, looking at the team stats, the team has an average of a -3 +/1 rating. So he is dead average in +/- & plays in all situations for the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was awarded the games 1st star. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
