Timothé Phillipe Bozon (born March 24, 1994) is an American-born French ice hockey left winger for Lausanne HC of the National League (NL). He was selected in the third round, 64th overall, by the Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League (NHL) in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft.
Bozon was born in St. Louis, Missouri, where his father, Philippe, played for the St. Louis Blues, but was raised in France. As a teenager, Bozon moved to Switzerland to further his hockey career, before moving again to Canada after the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League (WHL) selected him in the 2011 CHL Import Draft. During his third season with the Blazers, Bozon was traded to the Kootenay Ice.
Internationally, he has played for the French national junior team in several tournaments, and joined the French national senior team for the 2013 IIHF World Championships. In early 2014, Bozon contracted a life-threatening meningococcal infection, though ultimately recovered.
