TSN: Ray Ferraro and Darren Dreger talking Calgary Flames defenseman Nikita Zadorov.
** NHLRumors.com transcription
Dreger: “Zadorov isn’t happy with how things have gone in Calgary. Who is? But I’m also told that he sees himself as a three-four defenseman.
Farerro: “I would want him on my defense because I think he’s just unpredictable enough to scare the hell out of the other team.
NHL Rumors: What’s the latest with the Toronto Maple Leafs, William Nylander, and his contract situation
The late Brian Marchment terrified me because if the game was going wrong, he would look for a game-changing play. And it wasn’t that he was going to run the power play. And so you better have your head up.
If the best offer I got was from Vancouver, or if it was from my old boss in Toronto, I don’t really care. I need the best return.
Dreger: “For Toronto to make that deal for a Tanev and Zadorov, I think something like Fraser Minten‘s got to go back to Calgary as part of that package.
Ferraro: “Where’s the money go?”
Dreger: “Well, it’s got to be like T.J. Brodie or Klingberg or somebody has to be packaged as part of it.
Ferrao: “If you’re asking me as the Calgary Flames to take John Klingberg? No thanks.”
