FIRST OMG you did not just imply that Kane=Bozak? if you did
Richards is an overrated player. Second, Ricahrds plays with Carter, Bozo the clown plays with Kessel and JVR, and played with Kessel-Lupul
You want to draw a direct comparison between Ricahrd and bozak then take the year when Bozak-Kessel-Kulemin played together. I know not enough sample size but for consistency that has to be it. In statistical language its called indexing.
Yes shoot out is an important aspect of the game where points are up for grabs BUT if we have a capable center playing with Kessel and JVR then we might not even have to go to the shoot out most of the time. More so now that we have 2 capable goalies and a defensive system that does not suck.
Bozak is a decent 3rd line C not a top 6 player anywhere on any other team.
Huh? How at all did you come to that? I can see reading comprehension is not your strong-suit.
Sharp is the C, and Kane is the RW... just like Bozak is the C, and Kessel is the RW on his line. In the same way that Kessel is better than Bozak and expected to drive play on that line, Kane is better than Sharp and expected to drive play on that line. Point being that just because you don't drive the play, doesn't mean you suck, just means your linemate(s) is/are better than you. Most Bozak supporters, including myself, will tell you he is a good #2 being asked to play the #1 role. So for him to be overshadowed by Kessel and JVR in terms of offense and driving the play is expected, as long as he does all the other things right, and he does.
