He is a heart and soul guy. He is a Bobby Nystrom type. His teammates LOVE him.
Sign him properly and give him a decent amount of money already.
It's not like it'll cost a lot. Sign him for 3 years for a buck and a half. Big f-ing deal. Everybody's happy. Get it done.
This is stupid.

He was never going to get 3 years. It was always going to be either one or two because in two years, he'll still be an RFA. In three years, he can become a UFA.
I wouldn't be surprised if Bouma was the one who wanted the one-year deal. He'll have arbitration rights next year, so that will give him extra leverage for his next negotiation.
