You mean Chris Simon with 305 career points in 782 career games? At the rate Bollig is going at, he'll be lucky to have the career Chris Dingman had (played 74 games the year Tampa won the Cup).

Seriously Bollig does not have 2nd or 3rd line upside like Simon did around the same age. Westgarth is probably a more appropriate comparison for Bollig's potential upside.
