That's a big plus for bouma's development. Having the AHL team within a convenient distance will give him an added coaching boost. I'm sure that throughout the year the Heat coaching staff will have opportunities to meet up with Bouma and point him in the right direction. While he might not become Milan Lucic I think Bouma will turn out to be a decent hard-nosed hockey player and will get some playing time with the Flames in the future.
