Not to toot my own horn, but I said this many times going into the season. We dont have any franchise players, but this team has a lot of depth up front and a lot of it is young with upside.

On the wings, it's there.

Problem is, with kessel dry and Loops out, Bozak is effectively useless.

Thing is, the lineups change so often I can't even get a grip of where RC is anymore

Washington - Win
Washington - Win
Montreal - OTW
Boston - Lose
Carolina - OTL/W
Winnipeg - Win

thats my prediction, WASHINGTON IS BALLS.

Now that's silly. My bold prediction is Toronto beats Boston.

Yet he somehow has 2 goals and 4 points in 6 games.

if we were vs better teams, it may be 1-3-2

but washington is poop right now, montreal/the peg could go either way, boston is solid, carolina is either hit or miss.

i could honestly see 3-1-2 or 3-2-1

- big_dion


Could be.
If Kessel can start to contribute Goals also...then anything is possible at this point in the season

The biggest problem with your D is Dion. D00d is an overpayed overplayed shytty hockey player.
I love Lilles. Fransons improving.

Dion is a gaping whole on an otherwise decent Defense.

That's unjust. I seriously do not want to get into it right now though - so agree to disagree.

not to mention top five in the league in faceoffs for guys with over 100 draws.

people's expectations are way too high. bozak is on pace for a 55 point season right now if it was the full 82 game schedule.

and he makes what? 1.5 million a year?

its nothing short of absurd that people have an issue with this guy.

You're a twat.

Dion plays 30 min a night. Obviously he has brain farts. Obviously he can't hit the net.

But aside from that he's actually pretty competant. Overpaid, yes, but still noticeable when he's not in the lineup

Honestly, Bozak could easily be the most underrated player on the team.

There's a long list of guys who at this point you could consider underrated:

Kadri
Frattin
Kulemin
Gunnarsson
Reimer(pleasantly surprised)

And based on this forum I'd say Dion's underappreciated as well

people love to hate him but i havent seen one legitimate point against him

he's done nothing for the last 3 games..

cept get a point last night

so he was a ppg for the first three and now he is dealing with an injured winger and a slumping winger

but of course the fact he isnt producing over his head is his fault.

right.. that makes about as much sense as horseradish flavoured pancakes

Those are the good things that make me like him as a 3rd line C on a good team. Then there's the things like watching Kaleta power hump and noogy Phil (frank)ing Kessel for a full 30 seconds. I get that he's not a tough guy, but c'mon Kaleta's not a big man, he could've at least tried to pull him off his linemate and team's best scorer.

None of those guys are underrated, so to speak. Phaneuf maybe.. that's it though. Kadri and Kulemin are regulars on most trade discussions when it concerns the leafs (which is too often). Frattin is developing, not underrated. As for Reimer... that's open for debate.

His peers voted him the leagues most overrated player last year. Does that de-value him so much that he becomes undrrated? perhaps
