Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2007-08: Played his second full year with the Saskatoon Blades, posting 19 points and 104 penalty minutes in 69 games.
2008-09: Zahn served as one of the team’s assistant captains for the second season and helped lead the Saskatoon Blades to the WHL playoffs, where they were eliminated in seven games by the Lethbridge Hurricanes. Zahn scored one goal and two assists in the playoff series after posting five goals and 11 assists in 62 regular season matches. More of a shutdown defenseman, he excels at the physical aspects of the game and his 160 PIMs in the regular season easily lead the team.
Talent Analysis
From ISS in 2008: "Teigan has greatly improved his overall game since the start of the season. Since he was given the assistant captaincy permanently, his confidence has noticeably risen. His skating has improved by leaps and bounds and still takes the body and plays a physical game. Teigan is now receiving some power-play time on the second unit. He showed great composure with the puck and consistently made hard accurate first passes. He plays a lot of minutes for the Blades which makes his plus/minus totals a bit
deceiving."
Future
Zahn will likely continue to see his role increased as he enters his fourth major junior season.
