Berglund is a wing now but he was and is a very good third line center

Bozak is not an upgrade on Berglund and if you think he is you don't watch the blues

Berglund could be back at Center between Brouwer and Jaskin this season

- sycsam

I do watch them on occasion and Berglund is a waste of talent. All the tools but...he still finds a way to do nothing.

Looks good doing it though.

I would suspect that a Berglund + for Bozak ++ could be worked out

Berglund plays his role well

it would be a very interesting deal i think (if it were to happen)
Could see it being a 1 for 1, with toronto eating bozaks cap (if they can do that ... not sure how many they have on the books right now)

or like you said either team could end up doing the +

What I meant is that he's versatile, can be moved up and down the line-up. If he gets traded and is properly used as a 2nd or 3rd line centre, he could still fill in on the top line in a pinch. He has tons of experience playing against other teams' best players.
- BestRapperAlive

He can't move up and down the line up. He's never played anything other than top-line centre in the NHL and produced like a mediocre second line centre doing it. So you put him as a third line centre and he barely produces more than a third line centre whilst playing as a top line guy, it seems logical that his production would drop even further.

henrique and clowe for bozak seems fair
- jake24242

Seems stupid for the Devils if you ask me. We are no where near the cap ceiling we don't need to get rid of clowe and I believe his contract might be insured anyways.

The only way Toronto and nj are good trade partners is if nj is sending a young defense prospect for a young forward prospect. Other then that it makes little sense for two rebuilding teams to trade with each other since they are probably seeking the same types of assets.

Agreed Clowe doesn't make sense.

i could see some type of lateral move between the leafs/devils based on Shero not wanting some of Lou's holdovers and Lou wanting to grab a veteran or two he knows from the Devils' roster.

Wouldn't expect anything too earth shattering.

Blues have

Statsny
Backes
Berglund
Lehtera
Ott
Brodziak

Where does Bozak fit?

- sycsam


Bozak would play 3rd line center, allowing Backes to move back to wing. That said, there are better options than Bozak.

Zajac for bozak would be the only thing that makes sense for nj.
