congrats to kozak, i look forward to seeing him and byers on a line together again, next year. just a random question but does anybody think a kozak tidball scrap would be a good one ?

[Dwight Schrute]

no tidball would wreck kozak, i would however like to see old grant get ahold of tids

mcneill vs tidball.... could be the echl's fight of the year. i always thought mcneill would make it but he has been stuck in the "e". too bad they are taking out fighting but he was a solid stay at home dman.

Kozak's not even in the same relm as Tidball. Tidball would hurt him bad.
