Last season looks like a Lance Bouma though if you look at the underlying stats. His conversion rates on chances were through the roof.

Now he wants to get paid $2 million based on last season's results but is likely to put up maybe 15 points over 80 games next season.

Yamo is a better player, but he doesn't provide value at $3 million.

Good move for Yzerman IMO. He can afford to have players that are NHL calibre but don't have contract value because he has boatloads of cap space and the UFA crop is pretty dismal.
