Kozak (lower body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Maple Leafs.
Scouting Report
In his final junior campaign in the WHL, he produced at more than a point-per-game pace. Is a smart two-way forward who works very hard and gets results on sheer determination and guile. He is an overachiever. Can put up decent numbers at lower levels. His lack of ideal size limits output at the highest level.
Long Range Potential: Hard-working forward with a little upside.
