A Florida level team friendly deal would have been nice but not much we can do…
Awesome . Good to have Bouch for the next 4 years!!!!! Go Oilers. Thanks Patrick.
Will the oilers actually get boeser
Hey Patrick great rundown 🍻 looking forward to next year already 😀
I would not have even given Bouchard a qualifying offer. Brutal contract
Yeah, great till his turnover in the cup final gives the other team the winning goal …again
Still too much but compared to Nurse it won’t hurt for as long if a poor move. Bouchard record did not get the cup and no team friendly deal. Happy Canada Day from the Land of Smiles

Bouch is good.
Arvidsson will go and the Oilers will have around $4.5 million to play with and need to add at least one player. This is with the Oilers current player list, and that includes Max Jones who might not have a role here. My guess is Jack Roslovic and Klim Kostin are incoming on Canada Day. The Oilers don't have the money to be in play for Boeser and Mangiapane.
5.5mil over paid
For that money there should have been more term.. at least 5 or 6
Nurse has 9mill contract and is a 2nd-3rd line defence. Bouchard is easily twice the player.
He is a big piece of both cup runs.
I wish they would have played Arvidson way more. Wasted talent in my view.
Somehow I think I will be disappointed with what oilers will do on July 1st! Time will tell!
Wish it was 8 🙏 But im happy bouch is staying in Edmonton
I like your positive math
Imagine almost in 20 mil cap space and will give up goals… vs being plus in the season. 550,000 left in cap space with nothing to add to the team….at this rate, McDavid is gone😪. Only a moron would’ve signed him for more years…
"I'd rather have 2 more Ekholms then 1 Bouchard for that money". Ace96 Sept 23 1967. Ok maybe I lied about the date. Anyway, Oilers have far more issue/problems then the status of Bouchard imo. Stu again? Same bottom 6?? If so, I think McDavid may soon be wondering how good Avs would be with him on that team. But it's early ya, so lets see what happens. Thanks for the content Patrick) Say hi to Tyson for me)
We need Sorokin and more experienced head coach. More than signing Bouchard.
Awsome! Great signing!
How many times has Bouch turned over the puck and costed us the game. They over paid this dude.
Brock Boeser and a goalie! 🧡💙
BOUCHARD CONTRACT – MEDIA PUPPETS SAY HES WORTH IT AND DESERVES MORE.. HOWEVER …
" CLEARLY THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE " – What koolaid are all you Bouchard delusional cheering folks drinking "
WTF (McDavid your high school mean girls click selection of which players get to stay and which you ostracize and force out, IS NOW THE REASON YOU WILL NOT SEE A CUP FINAL AGAIN ) ITS Your OWN SELF SABOTAGE .
Every game under conners OVERRULING RESULTS IN 80% GUARANTEED LOSS AND EVERY ONE JUST FOOLISHLY EXPECTED TO FOLLOW IN THIS CLEAR DELUSION NONSENSE and all sheepishly agree to make UP SOME excuses to excuse this failure for obvious reason , but pretend it wasn't because of this mistake .. UGH
Every game NOT under conners OVERRULING SHOWED THE RESULTS IN 4 LINE ROLLING DEPTH With FULL TEAM COHESION And ABSOLUTE PLAY DOMINATION OF MANY OF THE TOP LEAGUES TEAMS DURING THE CHAMPIONSHIP RUN.
HOW CAN THAT ALL BE IGNORED And THROWN AWAY . ITS ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLY ABSURD This IS a good thing to the management . How WHY , IN WHAT UNIVERSE .
UGH.. SUCH INCOMPETENCE HAS TO BE INTENTIONAL , ONLY THING THAT COULD EXPLAIN THIS STUPIDITY .
GETTING RID OF KANE , BUT KEEP BOUCHARD WITHOUT EXPECTING BETTER BEFORE GIVING HIM 10 MILLION , BUT COMPLAINED AGAINST KANE @ 5.9 million .
THESE MOVES SEEM INSANE . NOW ASS KI$$ING CONNOR & BOUCHARD pushing everyone else out WTF
Observable reality PROVES 3 SEASONS RUNNING HISTORICAL VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT'S THE EXACT OPPOSITE IS TRUE . Bouchard in Gm 6 SCF – first 2 goals directly caused by his lack of effort , and BAM 2 goals against and OILERS LOST THE CUP
THE PANDERING OVER BOUCHARD WILL PROVE OILERS DOWNFALL AND REASON OILERS WON'T BE BACK TO THE CUP FINALS Now FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS .
WORST MOVE IN HISTORY PERIOD – GO WATCH EVERY GAME LAST SEASON , get a clicker , every time a goal against IS BECAUSE OF EVAN LACK OR CARING OR EFFORT WANDERING AROUND , bet you break the clicker before you get through the whole season .
Welcome to the Intentional return of "DECADE OF DARKNESS PART II "
INTENTIONAL INCOMPETENCE. ARE THEY ENSURING OILERS Will REMAIN A BROKEN JOKE..
STILL WAITING FOR Ashton Kutcher TO COME OUT LAUGHING , FINALLY ADMITTING WE ARE BEING "PUNKED" And IT'S ALL BEEN A JOKE.
BUT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE HAPPENING .
SAD TIME TO BE OILERS FANS, KNOWING IN ADVANCE , TEAM IS SCREWED For FORESEEABLE FUTURE WITH RESULT END BEING ALL TOP PLAYERS WILL BE GONE BY TIME THEY ADMIT THEY DID THIS INTENTIONALLY .
CHEER For A DIFFERENT TEAM , THE FRUSTRATION WILL ONLY GET WORSE .
Hi Patrick and all Oilers from very sunny and hyper warm Germany 🥵! Thx for the infos. I am not super happy about spending so much money for Bouch. He has a wonderful slapshot from the blue line, but first his job is to defend our goal and slot against the opponents offense!!! I'm this case he is only a guy like any other. But I'm the other hand he is a weapon in Powerplay like Draisaitl and sometimes he is also great in long passes out of our defense zone. Si to hold him in EDM is good but it is a great pricetag given, so I hope to see it on ice from him. I ve something to say to McD. I am disappointed about his speeches since now, because he is the captain of this team. To say that he needs to see the opportunity for a yearly final in the future includes him too, he doesn't play alone!!! Also as a captain of the team he has to show his will to win the cup in this franchise, not anywhere else, because he was also member of two times loosing team!!! This would be his job! From my point of view he loses a lot of bonus with these talks. And I hope that he will not be an outsider next season if he is telling more about the performance of the team, which isn't enough for the championship, without knowing that he was a member and captain of this team!
Connor you have to be a leader, stand in front of your team, push them to good performance and make it happen with them!!!
Cheers from Germany 🥵🥵🥵
The Bouch Bum is highly overrated and overpaid 😂
Elite stay at home defenseman, goalie, Boeser and some young gritty player to bottom six and Oilers can be successful
