love bouma but the guy isn't a fighter, nor is he as physical intimidating as westgarth. with the flames not having much size on the wings again this season, bouma likely playing 3rd line mins to add some hitting to the top 9. But he is NOT a fighter. He's had 2 fights in the last 2 years at the NHL level (compared to 13 by westgarth).
What games are you talking about where they got "dummied"? i thought for the most part the 4th line was rarely hemmed in their own zone or a major liability on the ice, regardless of their icetime.
