Might as well bring David Glacier back if that was what mattered. Hard to justify a guy playing so badly with the Marlies get the call because at one point in his career Barry Trotz was drunk enough to play him as his 4th line centre.

"He ranked 13th in the NHL in faceoff percentage (55.4%) last season and has finished as high as sixth overall in that category (57.4% in 2010-11)."

Looks like Bozak is soon to be out of a job.

Sending a guy down doesn't help with contract limit.

This guy can't skate to save his life. He'll win the draw and get the heck off the ice.

I was going to ask that. Just because he's on the Marlies doesn't change the fact he's on a Pro contract. Minor contracts would be different...
