Last night on Twitter Dave Bolland was somehow brought up in conversation and some Hawks fans joined in with their take on Bolland and the picture both they and the stats painted wasn't very nice. Here are some highlights:

Hasn't been the same.

Bolland can't win a draw, needs linemates who can forecheck. - MM

Good luck

So the Leafs got rid of a good two-way player who elevates those around him (and who might have a stomach problem) for a guy [who literally made every Blackhawk not named Jimmy Hayes worse](http://stats.hockeyanalysis.com/showplayer.php?pid=716&withagainst=true&season=2012-13&sit=5v5&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), while also having back and concussion issues. Good luck to the Leafs indeed. /drinks
