As much as I love Clifford's game, he has 10 pts in 59 games, and a concussion history. Bouma has 25 pts in 60 games, and will likely finish the year with more than half the amount of points Cliffy has in his whole career. He brings more to the table than Clifford does, and doesn't goon it up. Sure, Bouma may not be whom you'd consider top-six, but is more than serviceable to fill in in case of injury, or just to shake things up. If Clifford is gonna get term AND (relative) $'s, I'd give Boums at least 1.75 in year, and I'm confident he deserves at least $2M in each of the final two years of a 3-year contract.
