Bounces R Way

If by this year you mean everything post his repeated healthy scratchings, then yes.
Since mid-January or so, he's looked like someone at least worth keeping for bait in the expansion draft. But he's also riding an abnormally high shooting percentage that almost certainly isn't sustainable.
So if Treliving was indeed shopping Bouma at deadline, then don't look for him to make the same mistake twice in overpaying for Colborne.
Well to be fair he has scored almost all of his goals from in tight. I'd bet he's really only attempted around 20-30 shots from outside 8ft. Players that score from in tight or on deflections with regularity will usually have a higher S%. Tomas Holmstrom's career S% was 16.3, pretty high despite not being a noted shooter. Joe's may be abnormally high this year but for his career it's still 14.5%.
