Excited to go to Oshawa tomorrow and skate with @oshawagenerals squad. Brings back memories of the good ol days. #theplayers — Michael Del Zotto (@MichaelDelZotto) October 2, 2012 ...good, maybe his old coach can teach him the basics of getting the puck on net. ...still have to assume if/when the lockout is finished he gets signed immediately afterward. I think he'll end up losing a ton of money by not accepting the Rangers $2.5 million offer before the lockout. In related news, Del Zotto has apparently blocked me on Twitter... ...guess he didn't like my faux recap joke about him breaking the NHL record for missing the net during a game.
