Zhitnik came over to the Thrashers in the deadline deal for prospect Braydon Coburn. All he did was score 14 points (eight on the power play) in 18 games. That’s 64 points over an 82 game season. We’re not expecting a 64 point season but there is no reason not to expect Zhitnik to top 45-50 points. He is the power play QB and all those PP minutes passing to Hossa and/or Kovalchuk has to equate to a ton of points. He should also go under a lot of people’s radar as his totals from last season (38 points and plus-1) are a bit low due to his time with the Isles and especially the Flyers. He’s a great sleeper that would look great as your 3rd or 4th d-man.
