All Filip Zadina
via the NHL PR department,
Q. Were you surprised to go to Detroit?
FILIP ZADINA: Yeah, obviously I was kind of surprised, but I’m happy that I could be here, so it’s an awesome team. So I’m just excited to go with them and hopefully it’s going to go well.
Q. How surprised are you that you did fall to sixth?
FILIP ZADINA: I don’t want to call it that I fall to sixth. It’s a draft and I am in Detroit, so I don’t care what position I’m in. I’m a Detroit player. I just want to prove to Detroit that they have done a pretty good decision, so I’m just glad that I could be here.
Q. There was talk about going to Montreal. Did you expect them to pick you?
