GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Red Wings top draft pick Filip Zadina did not score a goal while playing for his native Czech Republic in the World Junior Championships, but he remains confident.

"It was kind of tough to go back and play Juniors," Zadina sais.  "I played here 27 games, so it was kind of different.  I was just playing my best, I didn't play bad, I played well, but I just couldn't score, that's it.  Obviously, I want to be better every single game. Every single day, it is not going to stop me ...  I am just going to keep going in the gym and on the ice."

Zadina and the Griffins are home to play Belleville Friday and Saturday night.
