MIKA ZIBANEJAD - Center - 25 - $5.35MM Cap Hit - UFA in 2022-23
LAST UPDATED 3/6/19
After his 51 point season as a 22 year old, ZIbanejad, due a hefty contract extension from the Senators, was shipped to New York in exchange for the more Derrick Brassard, who provided the cash-strapped Senators with more financial certainty in exchange for significantly reduced upside. Since arriving on Broadway, Zibanejad has begun to realize the potential he showed in Ottawa, culminating in his current season where he is scoring at a point-per-game pace as the Rangers' 1C. As a player, Zibanejad has developed himself into a crafty playmaker with incredible instincts and a strong goal-scoring touch. He drives the offense of his line when he's on the ice, and while he isn't a shutdown center he can definitely hold his own on the backcheck and in his own end. If he can continue to score at a point-per-game pace, Zibanejad can be the centerpiece of the new-age Rangers and the Rangers' best single offensive threat since Marian Gaborik.
