SI Names Del Zotto to All-Rookie Team

In Michael Farber at SI.com's end of the year awards he names Michael Del Zotto to his All-Rookie team.

...while the -20 is a concern, I thought Del Zotto had a very successful rookies season. Sure his offensive output slowed down considerably from his hot start, but I was thoroughly impressed that the 19-year-old was able to play in 80 games this season. He probably would have played in all 82 if it was for the freak skate laceration to his chest.

...Del Zotto is one of the many young, exciting players that should have Ranger fans, despite not making the playoffs, fired-up for the future of this team.

besides staal easily our best D man of the year. they need to surround him with bigger D-men though because MDZ is just not a physical presence in the defensive zone. hoping they do that, and praying for Messier
