He is St.L highest paid player by a large margin. He was getting paid the same as Jackman, Polak and Shattenkirk combined.
He is getting paid almost the same as Doughty....... Was he even 1/10 as positive a difference as Doughty...
He is supposed to be noticeable on the ice.
Did he rank in the top-10 St.L playoff performers:
Steen, Pietrangelo, Polak, Jackman, Backes, Reaves, Sobotka, Berglund, Shwartz and Oshie?
He played with Pietrangelo covering for him,,, in the brief time that Pietrangelo was away from Bouwmeester Pietrangelo was a +2.
Is there any NHL calibre D-man that would look bad playing with Pietrangelo as a partner?
The only thing I can say positive about Bo is that he did not totally disappear like he did in the last 20 games of 2011-12.... or 2008-09 where him playing above his norm/expectations rather than below his norm would have gotten Calgary and Florida into the playoffs.

You don't have a clue what your are talking about. Either you did not watch the games or have full hate on for JBO.
He was probably top 3 of the Blues performers for the series.
As for your other post on who is a better d prospect over Cundari? off the top of my head i could name 2: Hakanpa and Schmaltz. I have no doubt if i looked it up i could find at least another 2 prospects that are better. Cundari was not a top d prospect for the blues and i am not sure he was even in the top 5-6.
Funny how posters give Cundari high praise, yet thought Bartkowski from the proposed Boston deal was a useless throw in. They are about the same.
