2X draft media

 And just like that! Off to New Orleans! That is the draft day destination for NOLA’s newest defenseman, Sabarro Torretta. Drafted 32nd OA in the previous year’s J-draft, Sabarro had a great rookie campaigned for the Zerkers alongside fellow rookie d-man A. Balcers, the newly crowned rookie of the year in the J! Congrats partner! Well deserved. Together we combined for an insane +/- number of +88 (Balcers +44, Sab +40) which is insane for a rookie d-pairing playing 2nd pairing minutes in the J. Those numbers were good enough for 4th & 7th overall in the entire J for the season, crazy feat when you think about it. Sabarro went on to post a very nice looking +12 in the playoffs as well.

 
It has been a long (yet quick) journey so far for the you blueliner, far away from home sweet home in the beaches of South Carolina, Sabarro made the journey northward to the beautiful (and cold) section of Canada called Newfoundland, it took him a little while to settle in, it really did, but now firmly established he is ready to continue his assentation from the rookie class to sophomore status and help the Zerkers in what is expected to be a championship run the next 2-3 seasons, yes, high expectations up there.
 
In the future NOLA can be happy with what they got in the later rounds of the draft, a solid two-way defenseman who’s passing and positioning leads to a great 2-way d-man who is rarely out of position. NOLA had nothing to lose by taking a late round flyer on this kid and he expects to make that choice a solid one for the Specters. When the time comes for the call up to New Orleans you can expect Sabarro to be ready.


For the now, Sabarro can be found test driving cars he cannot afford and playing semi-high stakes Texas hold 'em games with money he cannot afford to lose, life in the j!
