Grabovski or Bozak

[lilgriffey84]

Have had grabovski for awhile thinking he will turn it around. Someone recently dropped Bozak. which one would be wiser to take. categories are goals,assist,plus minus,shots, PIM

I don't think Grabovski is in a funk so much as Carlyle has given him a boatload of defensive responsibility and limited his offensive game. I think this is mostly because the rest of the team's centers can't play defense as opposed to Grabo's defensive skill per se, but his offensive zone starts are low and he barely plays on the PP. Plus, there's chemistry on the top two lines, so there's really nowhere for him to go.

I'd consider taking a shot with Bozak, who is in a better situation and seems to have a long leash with Carlyle.

Exactly...Grabo is one of their best faceoff guys, so he's stuck starting in the D zone a lot. Maybe more so now that Steckel is gone.

Go Bozak
