Press Release - Brian Burke, president and general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, announced Friday that the hockey club has signed free agent forward Tyler Bozak to a two-year entry level contract.

?We are absolutely thrilled that Tyler has chosen to sign with the Maple Leafs today,? said Burke. ?He is a young man that was coveted by a large number of teams in our league and it?s our goal to help him reach his potential with our organization. He?s a responsible player at both ends of the ice and he has shown the ability to put points on the board with his quickness at the collegiate level.?

Bozak, a 23-year-old native of Regina, Saskatchewan, recently completed his second season with the University of Denver Pioneers. This past season, the 6-1, 180 pound forward played in 19 games for the Pioneers and collected eight goals and 15 assists. After missing half of the season recovering from a knee injury, he returned to the lineup and recorded a goal and an assist one week ago in the Pioneers' final game of their campaign. [READ]
