I don't see it necessarily as the defensive conscience. I think this is more about Bouma having the make-up to get the puck out of the rough areas (corners, boards) and get it to the other two. Then go to the net, make it tough on the opposing goalie and defense and pick up any left overs. Oh ya....and if someone looks at his linemates the wrong way then he lays a beat down. Similar role to Lucic on Boston.
