Paul Zanette (born April 8, 1988) is a Canadian-Italian professional ice hockey player. He is currently playing for the Edinburgh Capitals in the British Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL). In 2011 Zanette was named the Atlantic Hockey Player of the Year and was a selected as a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award.

Playing career

Undrafted, Zanette previously signed with the Rockford IceHogs of the American Hockey League for the 2011–12 season, subsequently splitting the year between the IceHogs and the Toledo Walleye.[1]

With no substantial North American offers, he opted to continue his career in following his Italian heritage, with HC Asiago of the Serie A.[2]

After two successful seasons with Asiago, Zanette left as a free agent, along with brother Marc, to sign an initial trail contract with fellow Italian club HC Bolzano, who competed in the Austrian EBEL on August 9, 2014.[3] Zanette completed his trial and was signed to a one-year contract whilst Marc departed.

After his contract expired with Asiago, Zanette joined Scottish club, Edinburgh Capitals, of the Elite Ice Hockey League on a two-year contract.[4]
