Lauser3 said:The only thing Bouwmeester has proven is that he'll probably be a Lady Byng nominee in the future. I sure hope you're not even comparing Jovanovski and Pronger to Bouwmeester here? He's NO WHERE near their league and never will be...both those guys put up much better points as youngsters than Jaystine has. And have continued to improve their games. Bouwmeester hasn't done this and he's already into his 4th pro season (technically) since the regular season is over. Wasn't Bobby Orr (an agent now) trying to sign Bouwmeester at that point? Gee, I wonder why he was praising the kid so much. So what if Jaystine can skate...so can a lot of figure skaters, but that won't keep him in the NHL for long if he can't put up the points to go with that skating ability. Laters.
It has kept him in the NHL long enough, and has earned him a spot on team Canada too.
You put way too much stock in his AHL performance, and not enough in what else he has done.
