First-line pivot Zajac nice 2013 sleeper pick
Travis Zajac - C - New Jersey Devils
Jan. 12, 2013 - 10:45 AM ET

If you are looking for a sleeper pick, Travis Zajac could be your man.

He is listed far down in Yahoo pools because he missed almost all of the 2011-12 season due to an achilles injury. However, he is fully healthy now and is set to center the Devils' top line, likely alongside Ilya Kovalchuk, and anchor the team's first power play. We wouldn't be surprised if he registered 40 points this season. Not bad for someone ranked 600 in Yahoo pre-draft rankings.
