Right shot D tend to get their chances, particularly when they can skate and have decent size. The sense has always been a bit suspect with Bowey but a protected third pair role elsewhere where he can play more to his strengths and maybe get a fresh start could be the for the best for all parties. He needs to play if he's going to improve and at this point he's likely significantly behind Djoos in his composure, sense and reliability. They haven't exactly built up his value but if they could get a third/fourth rounder or maybe a waiver-exempt forward with some pace/skill/upside it might still be worthwhile. He's probably going to be the first guy caught up in the pending D numbers game, barring some kind of extended opportunity where he's able to turn the corner. Even then with what's on the way I'd probably sell high. Over the next week or so seems like the best time of year to make such depth swaps, although I don't know who all may have an injury or a depth need.
