With Bozak they have been one of the top producing lines in the NHL. Sorry man you can't convince me Bozak is a problem. - honesthockey
Agreed. If u can't find a better center to play with Kessel than Bozak, than they MUST re-sign Bozak. I like him MUCH better than Weiss, RIbero & Roy. I have no problem if our top 2 centers are Bozak & Kadri. Sorry, Grabbo is out in my books. |

He isn't a playmaker. He's the trigger man not a true playmaker. Others make him look good not the other way around. - honesthockey
Hmmmm your word sounds better..I meant able to breakup plays to create new ones....but all his giveaways last year were just (frank)ing atrocious |

Agreed. The second anyone can prove they can be on the ice when Kessel produces like he has move Bozak. Until then you gotta keep him.

Agreed, even if next fall going into camp, even if the Leafs have at center Bozak, Grabbo, Bolland, McClement & Kadri, they still have no proven, true #1 center. - GCHonda
After a 40 game season, I'd be happier with Kadri than Bozak.
We're forgetting theres 3 players to that one line. Everyone wants someone who can play with kesselm. Well guess what, everybody and their grandma can play with kessel and put up points. Proven by Grandma Bozak.
But Kadri has proven he can play well in the playoffs with Kessel with a small sample size.
But also proved him and Lupul are awesome together.
Kadri for line one is the best bet after Vinny goes elsewhere. |

Only true if he can be signed to a reasonable deal. It looks like he can't be. |

Bozak can't even crack 50 points on a top producing line. He's an offensive black hole. - daeth
I'll take him over Weiss & Ribero. Compared to Weiss, Bozak is just better. Sure Ribero might produce a little more offense but the guy is a goof. Who needs an idiot like him in the dressing room? Probably the reason, he keeps getting traded. |

If it works I'd be all for it and have no problem driving Bozak straight to the airport.

YUP. You'll see...... if Nonis can't find a better center than Bozak, expect him to be re-signed. |

Three players on every line and read the numbers on every line. Player 1 has 20% more points then player 2 and 40% more points then player 3. Every (frank)ing top line is the same.

Yeah lost me with playoff faceoffs. Guess he missed the Bozak injury. Simple fact? With Bozak as his majority center has Kessel had career years? - honesthockey
Kessel has better numbers without Bozak as his center than he has with him as his center.
And the Bozak injury in game 7. Kessel and Kadi both had 2 points each that game. Bozak being hurt didn't cost them the game. The team being awful collectively in the last 10 minutes did though.

Nothing, literally nothng to do woth Bozak. If you think a guy is going to hit his career high in the first two years of his professional career, you're delusional.
Bozak is lucky he got to be a part of the Phil Kessel show for as long as he had.
Kessels numbers are growing because he's becoming a better player, entering his prime. |

That's the worst case too.
Worst case for Nurse is a Pronger/Lidstrom hybrid. - robin_steele264
That is definitely his low end potential.
His upper limit is probably Chuck Norris, or the Archangel Gabriel.

Dude. Learn how to read the numbers. It's based on games. Kessel with Connolly even started great then faded fast.
Bottom line has Kessel had career numbers with Bozak as his center? Simple question.
