Post-Game Talk: He’s such a Bouche

[tiger_80]

Oilers fully deserved that win...they DOMINATED the 3rd period
not winning that game would've been a heartbreaker

got the split....now back to the loudest crowd in the NHL!

And if they held onto that 4:1 lead, this series would be basically over.

 

[elmeroil]

But seriously, nice tip by Cole, perfect position, he basically looked like Hyman there! Nicely done

 

[ManofSteel55]

Hughes who?

Bouchard > Hughes easy. Ones a wimp that wilts with physicality and needs to make 5 spins before making a play.

The other is the elite hockey sense Bouchard that gets it done with his version and subtle moments and the best clapper in the League.

Hughes is weird. He's obviously super skilled, but he looked physically overwhelmed today. He bailed on a fee plays to avoid hits. I wonder if he is hurt too.

 

[rboomercat90]

Woooo

Still worried but f*** the Nucks

Yeah, f*** those guys.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

I cant wait to bring the facts when they close the GDT and open up the series talk.

forever waiting.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Has anyone mad a GIF of Hughes completely bailing on the play to avoid a hit in the first?

What time in the first?

Matthews cannot hold Drai's jock strap..Drai is a friggin beast

 

[Ibanez]

I shall have happy dreams filled with Bouchard piling goals into the net.

Glad I turned this on in the third. Happy times. Enjoy the win friends!!!

Injured Drai might be better than healthy Drai.

I don’t know what to do with the rest of the lines though. I couldn’t see any chemistry.

I also don’t think Perry saw a shift in OT. Wonder if the coach has had enough

 

[Gnome17]

Only 2 goals. And High-man with 9 goals and only 2 assists. The world has gone nuts.

its just more of the regular season really though.
If Oilers are to go all the way, at this rate its almost guaranteed McDavid will beat the record for most assissts in a playoffs-run, Gretzky had 31, McDavid already has 15 in 7 games.

 

[TheNumber4]

Who do you think I was calling a stinky shit?

You lost the right to tell anyone how or what to post a long time ago.

Didn’t lose shit. Never had it and never used it. Just calling out bad takes. Tell us again how badly we need to trade Bouch for a bag of pucks.

 

[McHelpus]

I feel like bieksa/gazdic should just go full don cherry and wear a Canuck/Oiler suits. They obviously want there teams to win, not sure why sportsnet doesn't let them have fun with it.

 

[McSomnii]

Thank you, Ian Cole

 

[McAsuno]

 

[Broberg Speed]

Skinner has let in 5 stinkers this series already where it had nothing to do with team defense in front of him.

That Zadorov goal was the worst. The first one he didn't even bother moving to EPs side.

that's how it goes... if they get in a rhythm, the defense plays the right way you don't get those kooky shots and bounces and Skinner can become a brick wall

 

[Donnys]

Draisaitl is a big game player. Just remember that when you get frustrated with him in the middle of the season.

 

[tiger_80]

Massive props to Drai for gutting it out and playing almost a perfect 28 minutes.

The man is a playoff monster. The anti-Skinner!

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Holloway looked like a legit scoring threat..
McLeod the opposite.

Time to give Holloway more shifts imo, fogele/mcleod have been terrible

 

[BlackDogg]

Merry Clenchmas!

 

[McOilers97]

Also very relieved that Leon didn’t seem limited or shy away from contact in tonight’s game.

 

[CycloneSweep]

What a beauty tip

 

[TheNumber4]

Hughes is weird. He's obviously super skilled, but he looked physically overwhelmed today. He bailed on a fee plays to avoid hits. I wonder if he is hurt too.

The physicality of the playoffs is stifling him. In the regular season he easily makes 2 or 3 wow plays from the blue line in. But that’s no so easy nursing bruised ribs.

 

[FlameChampion]

Haha that’s brutal on Cole. What a beautiful tip.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Ceci played under 15 mins and was absolutely f***ing trash again, Broberg or Stetcher need to replace him next game.

Preferably this is his last game in Oilers silks

 

[tiger_80]

its just more of the regular season really though.
If Oilers are to go all the way, at this rate its almost guaranteed McDavid will beat the record for most assissts in a playoffs-run, Gretzky had 31, McDavid already has 15 in 7 games.

I am not complaining. it's just a strange pattern. Hyman's scoring doubled for all intents and purposes. And McDavid's went down after a record season last year.

 

[Kinibo]

Injured playoff Draisaitl is a top 2 player

Probably just a ruptured spleen.
