Greg Zanon is a total chocolate lab (but a very intelligent one!) he just keeps coming back for more and has quickly proven to be a good addition to the Wild defense. He's been hurt in a few games this season and seems to only be in the locker room long enough to stitch him up, wipe off the blood and he's back on the ice. A MN Wild blooger recently called him a cyborg - that cracked me up! - minesotagirl71 Sat, 26 Dec 2009 06:52:13 +0100 http://www.hockeyprimetime.com/news/columns/persistence-is-the-key-to-shot-blocking#comment-19 If you can learn to get down quick and get those shinpads on the puck before the puck gets on net, you'll certainly be seeing more ice. I did a good amount of it while playing; and some guys I played with built a (good) reputation on it. What a relief to see a puck get deflected out of your zone when you're up by 1 with the 3rd winding down, or any other situation where you need the other guys to not score. If I'm a coach, and we're in that situation, I'm fairly confident I know who I need out there... - SDC Wed, 23 Dec 2009 08:29:38 +0100
