This summer, Zadorov is scheduled to become a free agent. When the market for the experienced defender's services opens, he will be in high demand and likely receive several bids. For Zadorov, free agency means much more than just moving into a temporary residence for the duration of the season, unlike other players.
Ever since the War in Ukraine started, Zadorov has made it clear that he does not approve of the operation. Rather, Zadorov has been vocal about his support for Ukraine, even though he is aware of the dangers associated with criticizing the regime. Thus, Zadorov is searching for a place he can call home as he hunts for a new residence.
Zadorov played in 75 games with the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames during the previous season, contributing 14 assists and 6 goals. Zadorov played around eighteen minutes a night and added 125 penalty minutes. According to reports, the defender is seeking a six-year contract that would pay him $6 million year.
