Bouma on the other hand needed to be in the penalty box a few times in the third, for fully engaging and forcing the Ducks to pay for their retaliation, more then Backlund was in the box,but no.

You're right, they don't have to be criticized. Problem is he was brought in and handed the A. The other problem is he doesn't act or deserve the A. Go ahead and be snake bitten. Struggle on the PP also, but you better put an effort in when the going gets tough. Monahan did a better job of standing up last night. Brouwer should be ashamed of himself.
