I think it's more likely that last season is his career high in points, and he's more of a 25-30 point player the rest of his career: 10-12 goals, 15-20 assists.
Totally agree. Bouma reminds me of Glencross. Excellent energy guy, with a tonne of grit and some scoring touch, but in the end is best served on the third line with second line duties due to injuries.

There is a chance he might break 40 if he ends up on a team that needs some depth up front, but otherwise I think the team, and his game are best served in a defensive, energy type role.
