My god you're difficult to have a rational discussion with.

That means absolutely nothing. Carlyle also thought it was a solid idea to have holzer play top pairing minutes for half the season.

There isn't anyone else.. There hasn't been anyone else that can produce the chemistry like bozak does with kessel for years. That doesn't provide just cause to ridiculously overpay him. Figure it out.

What's so (frank)ing irrational about a fact that Carlyle has him on the ice more then any other Leaf forward? It doesn't fit the lack of knowledge you have about the game?

Yet Carlyle see's enough to have him on the ice more then any other Leaf forward.
- honesthockey

His numbers get inflated for a few reasons:

- faceoff duties
- he gets PK time
- they were giving Kadri limited minutes to protect him
- Carlyle hates Grabbo for some reason

Yes, you have to immediately turn into a condescending wiener.. Because you have nothing (frank)ing else.

Carlyle played holzer top minutes to. Does that make holzer a top pairing defenseman?

Use your feeble brain for a second. If every decision the coach made was perfect the team would be 43-0

Bozak is the best they have at the moment.

That doesn't make him a $5.5 million a year centre.

Not even franking close.

Grabbo is untradeable with his bad contract and health issues.

If Bozak is looking for stupid money, I'd rather roll Kadri, Grabbo and Colborne/McClement next year.

Yes, Grabbo's contract is bad. That isn't a good reason to hand out another one to Bozak.

I know this conversation is pointless, because you're a (frank)ing douche canoe. Your hockey intelligence is reflective of your maturity, yet somehow you have that UG effect of sucking people into meaningless conversations.

Bozak has played 1C for 3 seasons, out of no one else being able to draw chemistry with kessel.. So he's worth we'll over 5 million a season. Got it.

Let another team pay for below average offensive abilities but plus defensive. That is what he is. And that's not 5 million per.

3.5-4 million is what he should be getting. If you pay 5 million or more you'll have Stajan 2.0.

Grabs being the "best player they had at the moment" resulted in the Leafs overpaying and now they are stuck with a bad long term contract...

I hope Nonis doesn't make the same mistake with Bozak as Burke made with Grabs..

Yeah and I'm the douche. Answer the Carlyle question . The problem is you have no (frank)ing clue about the game.
