Jay Bouwmeester flourishing in St Louis
20 GP, 1 G 15 A 16 P, +10.
As much as I both loved him for his speed and smooth skating while at the same time hated him for his soft play along the boards and complete inability to be a big difference maker as a Flame, it is nice to see him succeeding.
The big reason for his apparent lack of bang for buck while he was here was that Sutter didn't understand how to utilize his skill set properly. Obviously in St Louis playing with a strong supporting cast and within a successful system he is apparently thriving.
Good on ya J-Bo, all you have to work on now is trying to find a way to show emotion for the first time.
