  1. Yeah, Stu didn’t have his best night, but you can’t put this on him. Bouchard’s brutal turnovers and complete lack of effort on both ends made life impossible for him. When your defense is serving up freebies on a silver platter, what’s a goalie supposed to do? If the Oilers want an immediate boost on defense, bench Bouchard ASAP. Call up Josh Brown, Regula, or heck, even an undrafted D-man from the AHL or Canada West League. At least they’d know their first job as a defenseman is to defend and make smart plays, not hand out turnovers like candy. Sure, they might not have Bouch’s offensive upside, but at least they wouldn’t gift-wrap chances for the other team over and over again. Enough is enough—it’s painful to watch this guy out there right now.

  2. 10 million AAV for this? Brutal. Two terrible turnovers, zero offensive impact, and defensively he’s a liability. It’s hard to call him an offensive D-man when he’s not producing and keeps gifting the puck away. He doesn’t seem to learn from his mistakes, so how’s he ever supposed to improve? Absolutely embarrassing performance this season

  3. Bad game from the start that first fumble on the PP my god and he wants a fat cheque

  4. Hope he gives himself value by the trade deadline. Sick of watching his stupid plays all over the ice. 80% bad decisions always.

  5. Guys holding himself accountable. Do you really think he feels his game is where it should be rn? He’s his own biggest critic, just be patient with the guy.

  6. Everyone has a bad night. Everyone was shitting on Nurse last season, this season he is playing his best. Bouchard can play so much better, and he is going to prove it to all of us before the season is over.

  7. Enough is enough. How many times do we have to watch this douchbag make the same mistakes over and over again. So frustrating watching him giving up the puck a d lack of effort. Management, open your eyes!!! Stop making excuses for him, Knoblauch.

  8. statistics don't lie )) Skinner is NOT a good goalie ! this time he allowed 6 goals with SV % = .786 and his average .89 ) Is that good?

    and Bouchard, is NOT a good defender ! he has too many turn overs per game , clumsy and lazy in defense (-2) this game. send him to AHL?

    Jeff Skinner has ( -8) and that" s worst ( +/-) among Oilers, Henrique scored 2 goals in 31 games🤣

    On the bright spot : Hyman came back and had a good game, scoring 2 goals.😇 Let's go Oilers ! Let's go McDi and Drai !🤪

  9. Trade him for Quinn Hughes ))😇) PLEASE !!! or send Bouchard, to A H L )))😜🤑 He is lazy and clumsy !

  10. He looks pretty despondent right there, answering direct questions about why he's sticking right now – all on National TV.

    Guy knows he needs to get better and you can see he wants to. I hope he does.

  11. Funny all yall keyboard warriors troll when a player fucks up, however when he/they score you’re on the band wagon. 😂. Coronation street is on go pvr it.

  12. The issue I see with Bouch is he doesn’t really seem to learn from his mistakes. Sometimes it’s as if he forgets what he’s learned altogether. How is a guy supposed to improve when he keeps coming up with a new mistake to make every few games?
