With The trade deadline approching, the Folrida Panthers have a big decision to make.... Will they keep Boumeester and risk loosing him this summer when he becomes an unristricted free agent?
Bouwmeester 25 is making 4.825 million this season and will demand a much deserved pay increse next season. But that is not all, it is believed that he would like to play in a bigger and better hockey market.
He ws quoted saying "We've had some success, and people are coming out a little bit", "It's something that hasn't been here since I've been here. That's kind of what you want." to the Miami Herald. He also said "There's been times when it's been kind of depressing almost. There's nobody there. But they haven't really had much to come and cheer about in the past."
Rumours have circulated in the past that the Montreal Canadiens were looking to acquire the 6'4" 214lbs defence, but with the new acquisition of Mathieu Schneider I doubt they are still going after Boumeester.
Rumours flooting aroud are that the Boston Bruins and the Philidelphia Flyers are interested, but nothing is done yet.
Stay tuned to the Sportster Guy for breaking news on any movement.
