I'm disappointed in this signing because its good value for the hated Canucks.
He plays a heavier game for a guy his size, not a liability that's for sure and I'd say he's about half a mill a year overpaid but he brings true grit which the Canucks lack abundance of. Not as terrible of a signing as some are making it out to be, I already stated how Bouma was going to most likely be slightly north of 3 mill per and this all but confirms that. With the cap increasing and sitting where it currently sits players of this ilk used to make 1.5ish now they make 2.5ish, nothing shocking. Sbisa on the other hand makes Engs contract look stellar!
