He'll make a fine agent.

I'd like to see what an aspiring GM would say for his value. Two years @ $3M per?

The agent is going to have Bozak playing in Russia.

If we have 11-12 mil after RFA how are we screwed if we sign the UFA you proposed??

Only Leafs fans would complain about cap space when we're 29th in the league for committed salary right now

We should be able to sign two UFAs now and still have wiggle room after the RFAs are resigned. We're absolutely fine.

"As the Leafs’ No. 1 centre, the diversity of the minutes Bozak has played places him in elite company. Last year, Bozak averaged 20:18 minutes a game, with 2:58 on the power play and 1:38 short-handed.

The only other forwards to average 20 minutes, with over two minutes on the power play and 1.5 minutes shorthanded are:

Ilya Kovalchuk (15 years, $100 million)
Jordan Staal (10 years, $60 million)
Mikko Koivu (7 years, $47.25 million)
Jason Pominville (5 years, $26.5 million; signed as a restricted free agent)
Matt Duchene (2 years, $7 million; restricted)
Derek Stepan (3 years, $2.46 million; restricted)
Ryan Callahan (3 years, $12.8 million; restricted)
Claude Giroux (3 years, $11.25 million; restricted)

While Kovalchuk has truly separated himself from the other UFAs from an offensive standpoint, can the same really be said about comparables like Staal and Koivu?

Comparing Bozak to Mikko Koivu is an absolute joke. He must not watch hockey. He's far superior offensively and unlike Bozak doesn't have an overrated defensive game. He's actually good defensively, not just good compared to the rest of the bums on the Leafs roster.

29th in cap space, almost 25 mil to play with, cap is going to go up next year.


We're screwed.
