Filip Zadina (Czech pronunciation: [ˈfɪlɪp ˈzadɪna]; born November 27, 1999) is a Czech junior ice hockey forward currently playing for the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League (AHL) as a prospect of the Detroit Red Wings of the National Hockey League (NHL). Zadina was drafted 6th overall by the Red Wings in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career

Zadina made his Czech Extraliga debut playing with HC Dynamo Pardubice during the 2015–16 Czech Extraliga season.[1]

Zadina was selected 10th overall by the Halifax Mooseheads in the 2017 CHL Import Draft. He committed to the Mooseheads believing they would help him achieve his dream of playing in the NHL.[2] He led all rookies in points, was named to the First All-Star Team, the All-Rookie Team, and won the Michael Bossy Trophy as the best professional prospect in the league.[3]

Prior to the draft Zadina was considered a top prospect, with NHL Central Scouting Bureau describing him as a natural scorer with a great finishing touch.[4] He was the third ranked North American based skater, before he was selected sixth overall in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft by the Detroit Red Wings on June 22, 2018.[5] He soon agreed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Red Wings on July 7, 2018.[6] After attending Red Wings training camp prior to the 2018–19 season, Zadina was reassigned to the Grand Rapids Griffins in the American Hockey League on September 30.[7]

Personal life

Filip is the son of Marek Zadina, a retired professional ice hockey player who is currently an assistant coach for HC Oceláři Třinec of the Czech Extraliga.[8][9]
