8 goals in 56 games in 16-17 and 9 in 82 in 17-18. Added a lot of assists though.

Bouma went from .192ppg to .435. Sissons went from .172 to .300 to .400. Certainly that extra year makes it a bit less of a risk for Nashville, but overall, we are still talking about a player with exactly one 10+ goal season in his career. And Bouma is still a closer comparison than Bennett, who's four seasons have been .467/.321/.317/.380.
