why?
In Bouma's last 33 games.... post-all star 10 goal 17 pts .515 ppg +7... 15:44 min/game
Silfverberg last 34 games 7 goal 21 pts .618 +13 15:49 min/game
These were by far the best stretch of games for either player.
The Centre Bouma was playing with got 3.57 x 4 year ..... Silvferberg's centre 6.9x6..
Bouma is 7 months older than Silvferberg.
Bouma's 2.2 x3 is a great deal for The Flames.
Fate.... Bouma misses the playoffs with injury ... Silvferberg has his coming out party
