Would you let Bozak and JVR walk?

I think that Leivo and his possession game (along with his shot) might be more suitable for the line than Johnsson. I'd prefer for the team to tryout a Johnsson-Aaltonen-Kapanen as the 3b line. Given that Andreas and Miro were dominating the AHL before they were split up, I'd like to see if they can replicate some of that in the NHL.
Before even Kappy was called up that was the Marlies 1st line f***ing shit up in the AHL so no doubt that they'd do good here right off the bat

His QoC is lower than most and his zone starts are O zone dominant. I'd hope he's improving. To be fair to Bozak, playing with JVR is not a benefit to one's defensive #s. Regardless, at 32, as a C who has never been known for D prowess, as a player who is not a great skater and could be expected to lose a step as he ages, whose numbers are regressing this year after a career year last year (to be expected) I don't see why one would pay him to a higher number than what he currently makes.

Supply and Demand... not much more to it than that.
