Makes absolute zero sense for the Leafs to resign Bozak at that price. He is a defensive liability that plays, I believe, zero minutes of penalty kill time and as basically a 3rd line center, that's just unacceptable. Yes, he can win faceoffs, but that in itself should not merit $4.5 million. Instead, I would hope and expect the Leafs to go after Riley Nash. He is younger, plays way tougher, kills penalties, wins faceoffs and you could probably sign him for a $1 million cheaper. I am not sure he has much of a desire to leave Boston, but might be point is the money could be spent better elsewhere. As for the Gardiner trade, no thanks.
