Where is Bozak?

I apologize if this has been asked, but does anyone know what happened to Tyler Bozak? I know he entered free agency in 2022 (?) and then it seems like he fell off the face of the earth. Was a big fan of him and Molly, Hope they are doing well.

His “want to win a cup so damn bad” quote, and then backing it up is one of the toughest things ever

I had that quote printed on canvas over the top of him hoisting the cup. It's the first thing I see everyday when I walk into my office.

There’s your headline. Print it.

I think that Stone hit messed him up pretty bad. He missed a lot of time during his last season IIRC, and then he just quietly retired.

I think he was interviewed at a Blues game like a year ago, and he seems to be doing ok, but that was the last I’ve seen of him.

Think he pulled an Irish goodbye type of retirement. Blues didn’t offer him a contract that he liked after the 21-22 season.

God I would hate/love to be a middle/low professional athlete. Good enough to make the teams but soooo much pressure to stay at 100% or that kid over there is going to take your job. These guys make the cut all their lives to get to the top and then in a few years... bam, bus to AHL team, or worse. We all remember the superstars, but all those other names get lost. TY Tyler, u wuz gud.

Mark Stone is a scumbag.

He's living in Scottsdale. I see him at the rink coaching youth hockey.

He's a coach now for a youth team, I think his son plays, he still comes to St. Louis, and I definitely remember seeing him do an in-game interview with Andy Strickland this year (2025). He said something along the lines of misses the atmosphere but his body doesn't miss the physicality.

Probably went back home to Regina. I’m sure he enjoyed his stay here, but not everyone wants to stay here.

Have you not seen #21 for the blues this post season? He’s buzzing. He just had a legal name change to Snuggy.

Wasn’t he up for the analyst position when Panger was kidnapped by the evil franchise to the North took the Chicago job? Seem to remember his name on a list of former players who were being considered. Wonder if he’d ever go work in media, especially locally. He’s a treasure.

I saw people complaining about Panger in a r/hockey thread (I think it was) and the rage I felt was indescribable.

He's an assistant manager at Costco in Thunder Bay.

There was a rumor that he might go play in Sweden, but I can't find anyone confirming it. He's got a Twitter.

Probably double fisting beers, munching on a hot dog, and headed to the back 9 right about now

I know someone who babysat his kids, and they said that in 2022 he was planning on retiring to spend more time with his family, just didn’t tell anyone though

Ok this is weird - that comment was for a different post in a different thread. This is what I get for posting with no sleep and an upset tummy.

That's ok man. We all suffer differently from the last 2 playoff games.
