Kessel and JVR aren't exactly good defensive players, or good at puck retrieval.

Thats what Bozak does, he works the boards and plays defense whil Kessel and JVR play more strictly offense. Hence why Bozak doesnt get a lot of points, but his linemates do. His stats dont show on the scoresheet.

Obviously not an ideal #1 C, but would not look out of place as a #2C and would be one of the best #3C in the NHL.

This.

Fantasy solution to bozak problem...
4th-6th pick of this years draft are held by teams with depth at center or gaping holes on defense..
Leafs trade up, using their mid-round pick and one of their "untouchable" defenders...
Leafs draft Aleksander Barkov... Send him to Gary Roberts and a skating coach to solve his "speed" problem..
Leafs let Bozak walk, some other idiot pays Bozak 3-4 mil a year
Opening day 2013 leafs will have a 6'3 Sundin Jr. clone (who is already nhl ready) to play with Kessel and we can finally become serious contenders again.

I sure hope it does though... Just running through scenarios that would allow the Leafs a serious shot at an actual number one center... (weiss, stastny, bozak aren't legit no. 1's... Kadri could end up being a good 2c on a cup team)
Besides trading up to draft a future star... There really is no other way to do this! Nobody trades good, young centremen and they are never free agents either.. I hope Nonis realizes there is only one road to take if he wants us to be really good one day.

Glorified 3 line center. Trade him in a pkg for a top end player or for picks, bump up Kadri, call up Colborne. Bob is your uncle
