Even if Bouma has three 10-goal 15-assist seasons I will be satisfied with this contract if he continues to lead the PK and play with the same attitude and determination and become a leader for the team.
In 2 years I see him as a 4th liner because I hope some combination of Klimchuk-Agostino-Ferland-Jankowski-Shore has pushed him down there. But a 4th line of say Bouma-Arnold-HSmith could be in the nightmares of every defensive 3rd pairing in the league. A classic championship team crash line with defensive skill and some offensive upside.
