There is a huge list of players that have won squat if we exclude stacked international teams. That includes pretty much every core player on that Blues team.
Bouw has always been a victim of expectations. Coming to Calgary as a huge acquisition and being expected to be a 20g messiah like Norris contender was awful for him.
How many times do we hear that it is good for a dman to be boring? It's a compliment for most guys to not be noticed. When we don't notice Jbo he's a bum. When we don't notice Pietrangelo he's a stud.

Lol please watch the third goal and tell me how that's not 100% on Bouwmeester. He goes to the wrong side when his D partner already has that covered and then realizes too late that there is a Hawk coming from each side and he's on the wrong side. The Hawk scores a easy tap-in because Bouwmeester went to the wrong side of the ice. He's the goat there.
Fifth goal when he's in the penalty box it was because he fell asleep and didn't see the Hawk open until it was too late. Tried to recover and had to take a penalty. How exactly isn't that goal his fault? He took an unnecessary penalty that led to a pp goal. Again, he's the goat.
Bouwmeester continues to have brain farts in important games and looks like he may need better contacts as he always looks like he can't see when he's playing. He constantly misses his guy and doesn't cover him up.
