Insider makes a concerning revelation on Zadorov's future in Vancouver

According to Frank Seravalli, Nikita Zadorov's tenure with the Vancouver Canucks will likely last just a partial season and a playoff run. The Daily FaceOff insider was on the Sekeres and Price show last week, discussing the likelihood of Nikita Zadorov returning to Vancouver.

Unlikely, in his opinion, but still a move the Canucks would make over and over again.

Seravalli says Zadorov will likely look at himself as a better skating Erik Gudbranson, who makes 4 million a year - and the cap is rising to boot. He says Zadorov making $5 million yearly on a 4-year deal wouldn't surprise him.

While he didn't count out a return to Vancouver, he believes the big defenceman was always seen as a rental.
