Bollig is actually quite serviceable.

If you use Michael Parkatti's adjusted Corsi metric - which allows for comparisons by adjusting for Quality of Competition, Quality of Teammates and Zone Starts - Bollig comes in at an Adjusted Corsi of 2.19, which would be about the same as Jiri Hudler. Granted, Bollig was on a stacked team, so even if you downgrade Bollig slightly due to this advantage, his first full year compares (possession-wise) to Joe Colborne.

-Almost all D-zone starts (18% offensive zone start.....18%!!)
-Decent quality of opposition (Only Patrick Kane's line faced tougher opposition)
-Corsi keeping afloat
Yeah, he's a face-puncher but he's hardly a possession black hole. Wish people would stop thinking of him that way.
