Observations:

April, 2012 - Zibanejad assigned to the Binghamton Senators on April 11th to finish the AHL regular season.  Before suiting up in his first game for the "Baby Sens", Mika collided with a teammate in practice suffering a concussion.  Zibanejad has been shut down for the 2011-2012 season. Brendan Ross

January, 2012 – The heroic figure for Team Sweden at the 2012 World Junior Championships, Mika Zibanejad scored the overtime game-winning goal to become a national star.  One of the 2011 draft class risers, Zibanejad offers a well-rounded game with good offensive upside and will be able to provide the Senators with a sizeable number two centerman behind Jason Spezza.  Zibanejad, also capable of shifting to the wing, projects as a top 6 forward with good creativity, physicality and thrives when he drives to the net. The Senators would be very happy to see Zibanejad develop into a 30+ goal scorer with 75+ point upside. Brendan Ross

Fantasy Outlook: A

Good upside and almost cracked the Senators final roster. Look for his permanent arrival in 2012-13 and should be fantasy relevant immediately.
