Islands in the stream.
I got all the time in the world for Bouch. Won't forget his playoffs like I never forgot Drai's stud first playoffs. You keep players like that and deal with the warts/growing pains in the doldrums of the Regular Season.
Exactly. He's an offensive stud. You get a PPG D once every 40yrs if you're lucky as a franchise. Its a big deal, a real big deal. So he makes some miscues here and there. The cost benefit of this guy is crazy good. But some focus just on his miscues. lol even tonight there were some eeyore posts throwing shade on Booch. Can't understand it.

What happened to him?
I missed it too. Anybody?

Beginning of last year I'd harp on Bouch's defensive deficiencies, but then they were gone and he was nearly completely solid.

Think he's probably just a slow starter like this entire Oilers team. He'll come around and no one will be harping on his defence anymore, cause they won't be anything to harp on.

That's the narrative coming out of Toronto too. Like I give a f*** though, they wouldn't even give Bouch the credit he deserves having a Conn Smythe caliber run in the playoffs. The whole hockey world wants Bouch to fail. Won't happen though, too much talent there.
Id rather all the Oiler players refuse and just stay home to rest up for hopefully a long post season push.

Fake ass Olympics means nothing. Does anyone even remember what happened at the whatever-it-was called Tournament that featured the Country of North America?

Make no mistake. 97 and 29 are the reason they won tonight. The team is fundamentally an extremely flawed. They need major changes to the surrounding cast to even have a chance in the playoffs.
