Casey PierroZabotel, a Canadian professional ice hockey center, was born November 8, 1988. He is currently playing for Adirondack Thunder in the ECHL. The Pittsburgh Penguins drafted him in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft, 82nd overall. He was originally from the British Columbia Hockey League. He was a major junior player with the Vancouver Giants (WHL) and set single- season franchise records with 79 assists, 115 points, which led to him being awarded the Bob Clarke Trophy as league’s top scorer.

He was set to make the leap from Junior A to college hockey at Michigan Tech in 2007-08. However, the NCAA deemed him ineligible for the first semester of play due to academic reasons. Pierro-Zabotel signed instead with the Memorial Cup-defending champions, the Vancouver Giants of WHL in November 2007. In his major junior rookie season, he scored his first WHL goal against the Medicine Hat Tigers on November 24, and had 48 points in 49 games with the Giants.

A week after Pierro-Zabotel’s final WHL season ended, the Penguins signed him to a three-year, entry level contract on May 4, 2009. He was subsequently assigned to the American Hockey League (AHL) to join the Pittsburgh’s minor league affiliate, the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins for their 2009 playoff run. He did not, however, appear in any games.

Beginning the 2008–09 season on the top line with Evander Kane, Pierro-Zabotel was named WHL Player of the Week on October 5 after recording 7 points in 2 games. Just 44 games into the season, he set a Giants single-season record with his 54th assist as part of a 5-point game on January 17, 2009, in a 9–3 win against the Red Deer Rebels. The team mark was previously set by Darren Lynch, who recorded 53 assists in 70 games in 2002–03. A little over a week later, on January 25, Pierro-Zabotel tied the Giants’ franchise mark for single-season points set by Gilbert Brule in 2004–05 with his 87th point of the season. He broke the record the next game against the Medicine Hat Tigers, on January 28, with an assist in a 4–3 win. His record-setting January was capped off with a WHL Player of the Month recognition after tallying 28 points in 15 games. Pierro-Zabotel completed his second WHL season with a league-high 115 points (36 goals and 79 assists) to become the first Giants recipient of the Bob Clarke Trophy. He was also named co-team MVP with captain Jonathon Blum and was unanimously selected to the WHL West First All-Star Team. After eliminating the Spokane Chiefs in the second round of the playoffs, Pierro- Zabotel was named the Western Conference’s nominee for the Four Broncos Memorial Trophy as top WHL player. The award was given to Eastern Conference finalist Brett Sonne of the Calgary Hitmen. In game two of the semifinals, he scored the game winning overtime goal to defeat the Kelowna Rockets 4–3 and tie the series 1–1. The Giants were, however, eliminated in six games. Pierro- Zabotel completed the post-season with 17 points in 17 games.

Pierro-Zabotel became the team captain for Canada West at the 2007 World Junior A Challenge, Trail, British Columbia. His team beat Belarus 7-4 in quarter-finals. He scored a natural hattrick in the third period in 4 minutes. This was the start of his second consecutive gold medal win against Canada East. He was tied for second in team scoring with tournament MVP Mike Connolly, who finished with 7 points after 5 games.
