Tyler Bozak: Won't travel on road trip

Bozak (head) will not join the Maple Leafs as they prepare to head west for a four-game road trip.

Analysis:

Bozak is reportedly not feeling well, and as a result he'll stay back in Toronto for what will likely amount to the entirety of the road trip. It seems possible he could rejoin the team late in the road trip at Chicago, but that's unlikely, with a more feasible scenario involving him rejoining the lineup next week Thursday when they return home to face the Rangers. The Maple Leafs recalled three forwards to add some depth on the road trip, but the team's quality of play will undoubtedly suffer from being without two of their top three scorers in Bozak and James van Riemsdyk (foot).
