"When you have 900 games in this league and 14 years, you don’t want to be in this situation and you feel disappointed, you feel disgusted about it."

The decision came after Zadorov took three penalties, including an elbowing and roughing double-minor against Frank Vatrano, during Friday's 4-2 victory against the Anaheim Ducks.
Sturm cited discipline as the primary reason for benching the veteran blueliner. While Zadorov admitted frustration over the scratch, he stated he has no regrets about his physical style of play and intends to move forward.
