I can live with Bouma. The guy gets hurt doing the nasty things game in and game out. He really does leave it on the line out there. While he certainly hasn't performed up to last seasons standards I can fully appreciate why he hasn't. Thats because he plays the game hard and take bigger injuries. Problem is, his shelf life is shorter than most NHL players and I think that's the primary reason why he got paid what he did last off season. He's not going to make much more than this contract.
