For Toronto | By Tyler Bozak

Awe.. Right in the feels.

"I’ll never forget the time we were out one afternoon that summer and these kids — like 15- and 16-year-olds — recognized us. We hadn’t even worn a Leafs jersey yet. I heard them talking to their friends like, “Oh yeah, that’s Bozak. He had 34 points in 41 games for Denver last year. I think he’ll be a good center, but he needs to work on his shot.”

For Tyler Bozak - Bye Tyler Bozak

 

[Revolt]

Thanks for sharing, great article.

Was always a fan of the person and the player. Took a lot of flack here, but to me, he was always a solid contributor.

Best of luck Bozie!

Loved this article. I used to live in the same building as Phil and Tyler and it was always cool to see them around. I'll miss Tyler, he loved this team.

Great article. Gonna miss him. Was a great faceoff man. Was 10x more of player than anyone can expect by signing a kid outta the NCAA. Was the centre for our best lines during those ugly ugly years. Bozak put up with a crapload. It sucks we couldn't have him back as a depth center, but of course, he's way too talented for that.


Hat trick too. No doubt Bozak got it that night.

Class. Act.

All the best you beautiful bastard.

 

[AllDay28]

He was a soldier for the Leafs during the bad years. 9 yrs man. Thats wild. He'll be missed but it had to be done.

 

[diceman934]

Great story and a great person who was very proud to be a Leaf. Class act and a good player.

 

[Yamazaki]

Always took way more criticism than getting credit. Underrated player for us, can’t beleive its been 9 years. I was hoping we could keep him as our 4th line center for a year but that was wishful thinking.

I’ll miss him a lot in the shootouts.

My dog's name is Stella too. Good piece

Great article, thanks for sharing!

Dude is a class act through and through...both him and JVR got perhaps more flack than they deserved from Leafs fans as our expectations are always through the roof but they are both top notch in my book.

Thanks for the service and good luck in your future careers!

 

[GongShowWilly]

Great article , great guy . Hope he has continued success in STL

 

[Blanche Blanche]

Classy.
A knack for writing.
Underrated for a Centre while here in Toronto.

Glad another good team sees his value.

Thanks Bozie

I hope Shanahan sends him an empty wallet in the mail.

With some witty note attached like:”Here’s a free wallet” - Toronto

 

[Dynamite Kid]

I wish he had of stayed as our fourth line C. He will be missed on the ice and in the locker room. I never understood the hate.

 

[Flipwon]

Good read... Cya!

 

[Ropesman]

One of the best College FA signings in the last decade. Guy was a free wallet for us and turned into a very serviceable player for many years. Proved his success was not just due to Phil Kessel, blues should be happy to have him.

Thanks for everything Tyler Bozak
