Del Zotto Turning Heads

Ryan Pyette at the London Free Press has a nice piece on how Rangers defensive prospect Michael Del Zotto began turning heads after he was traded to the London Knights last season and now may have a chance to make the Canadian World Junior team...

"You know he's talented but until the trade, you didn't really know how good he was," Knights coah Dale Hunter said. "You'd only see him two times a year and it's hard to get an impression. But he came here and it wasn't just the offence.

"He hit hard. He did a great job for us and I think he can help a team (at the international level)."

...let's hope Del Zotto is too busy succeeding with the Rangers this year to worry about the Canadian World Junior team.

...with a wide open competition for the last few spots on D, Del Zotto has as good a chance as anyone to make the big club.
