Del Zotto maturing into top-four defenseman role
NEW YORK -- About nine months ago, Michael Del Zotto hit rock bottom.
The New York Rangers were in a chase for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. At the trade deadline, they decided they were better off acquiring veteran defenseman Bryan McCabe and sending the 20-year-old Del Zotto to the AHL for the rest of the season.
As if that wasn't enough of a punch to the stomach of the promising Del Zotto, he broke his finger in his first game with the Connecticut Whale.
Just like that, a nightmare of a second season was over.
