It's premature to assume Bouma can't be a 2nd line winger considering he's playing 2nd line wing pretty decently. He IS fourth on this team in goal scoring and has scored as many goals this season in the NHL as Sven has in the AHL + NHL with a decent amount of assists.
Either way we do have a lot of LW or lefty centers:
Poirier
Backlund
Colborne
Granlund
Wolf
Ferland
Klimchuk
Jankowski
Assuming that out of those talented guys not one has a 2nd line LW ceiling is very pessimistic. Hell, if Byron learns to finish in the NHL he'd be a Brad Marchand 2.0
It's safe to say we have way more concerns at RW.
