Tyler Bozak

Current Team:  St. Louis Blues
Age: 36
2021-22 Stats: 50 Games, 2 Goals, 12 points
Current Salary: $750,000

Could Tyler Bozak be the new Jason Spezza for the Toronto Maple Leafs?  Unlikely.

Bozak is coming off what is by far his worst NHL season.  At 36 years old, he doesn’t have much left to give.  He barely earned his one-year extension with the St. Louis Blues last offseason, and I see him retiring this offseason.

It’s a little sad since Bozak spent nine seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs.  If his production hadn’t dropped off so much last season, it would have been great to see him back in a Leafs jersey.

At least he got to win a Stanley Cup with the Blues in 2019, but it would’ve been amazing to see him win one with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
