Top prospect or not, rules are the rules. That's what Nikita Zadorov learned the hard way when he showed up late to a team meeting this past weekend. After being suspended by the team earlier for delaying his flight arriving late from vacation after the All-Star break, Zadorov was suspended another game on sunday when the Sabres met with the Predators. GM Tim Murray also had a 10 minute talk with the kid, saying that he was the one doing the talking and wasn't polite about it. He told him he was a good prospect, but he’s not getting the keys to the kingdom here and he has to be a better teammate. Zadorov apologized publicly afterwards and said this would not happen again.
