It's no secret that we need to improve defensively and that we need to upgrade in that respect. But what about our forwards? I think we all know the Bozak line will never be good in in their own end. Thus far they have been out scored 6-3. Bozak and JVR are Defensive liabilities, which is no wonder bozak is being used predominantly in the offence circle.

Trade JVR and Bozak for D help and picks. We still need a strong, physical shut down guy (one that can actually skate)

Forward lines Would look like this:

Hyman-Matthews-Nylander
Kappinen-Marleau-Marner
Komarov-Kadri-Brown
Martin-Fehur-Leivo







Hyman-Matthews-Nylander
Kapanen-Marleu

One thing I agree with is bringing kapanen up. He is a great defensive player and can skate. Think he would be good on the Martin line tho. Could give us 4 lines that have the ability to be a threat.

Jm1983,
I can conquer with your post about Bozak as I was echoing similar arguments in a previous post regarding Saturdays game. Anyone watching closely would have noticed how Babcock was sheltering the Bozak line from any defensive zone face offs. Personally I would prefer a second line that can play both ends which is why I think long term, Bozak and JVR will not be Leafs.

jvr and bozak are basically on the third line.
