I think you keep Bouma for the playoffs. Players like him come to be counted on in the post-season.
I would trade him in the off-season (and hopefully he has a good playoffs to increase his value).
I like to have defensive depth - and the Flames finally have it - but I would make room for the overages. If that means Wideman, or Jokipakka, or whatever, you do it if possible.
