The ironman streak of Bouwmeester is not something he should be hanging his hat on. Last season he had 69 hits in 82 games. Slow old useless Cory Sarich had 144 in 20 less games.
The guy doesn't even average 1 hit per game. I'm glad his ice time is being reduced (Wideman, Butler & Gio all logged more tonight) but Brodie could honestly do more to help the team with those minutes than Jay does.
Just a boat anchor of a contract at this point.
