Analysis:
The second line winger spot is still up for grabs after David Booth hit the IR. Kozun has practised there and will certainly see some time with that duo. But please remember -- he's still a raw rookie and expectations must be tempered. But if he shows any chemistry with those two, Kozun might provide a bit of immediate waiver wire relief for those of you with injury-related holes to start the season.
