The last few games? Missed that I guess. Yes he's been useless in those games (aside from faceoffs).

guess that fact he scored a point last night doesnt count huh?

hating a unsigned first line center that we aquired for nothing.

only after an OT win with a second left in Buff.

nevermind the fact that he is leading the league in faceoffs won... is 5th overall in faceoff percentage for guys with over 100 draws and over the course of an 82 game season would be on pace for 55 points

bozak is a good player.. admittedly he's not a first line centre.. but considering him to be a pile of garbage is well.. stupid.

He is all that except the two way play. He does not strike any fear in any goalie. He is decent defensively.

I hope you're right ....the way it's played out though makes me atleast wonder if he's still having some 'undisclosed' side effects.
- The Law




Well he's played 2 NHL games, and AHL game and is practicing in full so I don't think so.

well if he passes the puck in the O zone and looks for a rebound (pretty sure hes got 2 goals like that in the first 5 games). Then i have no problem with him feeding Phil, Lupul, or whatever winger is going to be out there with him.

Bozak is the least of our worries right now. Sure a better first line center may be in the picture in the future, but right now im more worried about Phaneuf.

he cant hit the net to save his life. hes getting burned wide all the time, he hasnt laid a bone crushing hit yet, he needs a full day shooting at an open net (so he cant hurt anyone).

bozak i say again, is the least of our concerns, Phil is the one (frank)in the dog out there.

3 seasons later.

he is not your every day first line center, but was gomez or Roy? no, but you use what you got, and for the most part, phil and bozak have good chemistry, just because phil cant put the puck in the net, i dont see why to blame bozie.

realistically that whole line hasnt been as good in the last few days because phil is blowing it out there, and lupul is hurt, what do you expect? honestly, im not trying to argue, what do you expect when the first line loses a winger and you have to slot in 2/3rd line tweeners in?

Agreed. Phil was fine the first 5 games, I think this was his worst. And yeah I think a lot of it has to do with losing lupul and bozak hasn't been as goodin the last few as he was in the first few (FYI that was my point with bozak. I liked him Kim the first 3 but he hasn't been nearly good enough last 3. Not g
Hating, just reality)
