Impressive game. Preseason, but still, good play.

The Hockey News scouting report on Kozun :

Flaws: Is woefully undersized for the National Hockey League level. Needs to get physically stronger to be able to better compete against bigger defenders. His skating may also be an issue.

Oh really.

Everyone's shiny new toy with the game winner!

I do but I dont think he's ready.

I really really dislike how he throws the puck away every time he thinks he's going to get hit.

Some house league stuff

Not seeing it.

Ive seen it 5 times the past 2 games he's played.

Blindly gets rid of it.

kozun makes the team automatically now

yeah nylander should not make the team this year... on the other hand leivo, percy and kozun should make the team and remain with the team. Cut nylander, loov, ashton, mclaren, holzer and trade franson

I must say....the new TSN website sucks.

JVR a little more defensive and he is the best guy. Hope he puts up another 30.

Excellent evening by JVR. I also thought for a moment Phaneuf might get a hat trick

I think Robidas is going to be a solid addition. He actually talks to the young defencemen about where they should be and what they should do.

I think he will be fine.

Pretty good for an older guy who broke his leg twice last year.

JVR for captain if he picks up some leadership and 5v5 dzone play.

I don't think anybody was even thinking about Kozun before the pre season. Now he is playing great.

Great game. I like Percy as well. I hear Detroit still needs a right handed shot on the blueline

Franson for a 4th round. I'm good.

Watched every game, paid close attention to Percy specifically I haven't seen it. He has poise with the puck, haven't seen too many rushed plays from him.

Wait he was talking about Percy

If anything under pressure he has shown he can move the puck no problem.

I think they could get a 3rd for him. Maybe even a 2nd. Rightys with a shot like him on the PP are difficult to find. If it was so easy the Wings would have gotten one already.

Whatever! Just move him lol. Addition by subtraction.

He's been good for what he is - a rookie. He has given the puck up a few times tonight but that's negated from the teamwork of robidas, gardiner and rielly (all of which played a shift with him tonight.

I think he has a good chance (like 80/20) to make the opening roster but it's tough to say if he'll stick over 9 games.

Agreed.

I still Think Hollands in. He's had a decent camp.
- Big_Lightnin

Only because he plays center, but yeah, you're probably right.

Booth's probably going to miss a few games, Clarkson might too.

Depending on franson health

Clarkson should be back for opening night. Booth should be out 6-10 games.

I must say....the new TSN website sucks.

Do they still allow non-stop Leaf bashing comments yet none for the other Canadian teams?
