Give Bouwmeester his due. He played very well on a dominant team.

You still have to play the games obviously, but that doesn't negate our dominance in talent.
It is a ridiculous argument to say the team won, therefore all the roster decisions were the correct ones.
And again, no one is arguing that Bouwmeester is a bad player - there are dozens of fantastic hockey players that can't make TC. Jay is a solid player but that doesn't change the fact that Giordano and Brodie are both better.
