I agree with people on here saying how good his work ethic is and how every team needs guys like this but I also agree with others because we can really only have so many third or fourth line guys.... Making a case for a guy who's all defense and may get the occasional point is the same as making a case for the guy who's all offense and may have an occasional defensive moment. The defense side of things may pump up the team and the home crowd at times but offense does the same and more people go to games to see amazing offensive displays then they do to see anything defensive.
Bouma is good and brings a lot but he's a certain kind of player and you can have too many of a certain kind of player.
