This is why fans hate him. No team discount or give little on term
The Bouch Bum is highly overrated and overpaid
Ekblad, Jones and Forsling combined make less money than Bouchard and Nurse Lmao. The Panthers are going for a 3peat. Marchand is back as well. Go Panthers Go!
To much money for this guy in my opinion
not worth it he is too weak defensively
are u kidding,? u guys report on the Oilers but at least be honest..this is a terrible signing its Nurse 2.0
I don’t understand not taking guaranteed money if it’s at almost the top dollar for nhl dmen sign 8 years no matter if you get hurt your getting paid or if the oilers fall off your going to get paid
Bye bye Mcdavid
Money first, Stanley Cup second. Bunch of bums.
Bouchard is not way better. Put Dobson with Draisaitl and Mcdavid and puts up better numbers.
Put the Homer in you aside.
Danm terrible overpay
Just not strong enough of a defenseman
I disagree with the video's analysis. If you're to pay any defenseman over $10M AAV, they should be a complete defenseman. There is no question Bouchard is elite on offense but he still has to prove that he can run the backend. Four years is fair for him to prove he deserves more term, and if he can, no one is going to complain he gets top market dollars at top term om the next signing.
20M to Bouchard and Nurse is crazy lol
Stan Bowman sucks so bad,he signed a freaking gost for 3.85 and a freaking turnover machine for 10.5 ??? Absolutely insane
That means Hughes and Makar will be making 15 million?
You have to trade him now for value.
Edmonton LOVES over-paying for defenseman eh
Don’t expect players to take pay cuts if it’s not their hometown and if you haven’t won a cup.
Bouchard saw McDavid might leave and said yea I’m not committing long term.
They should trade him to Montreal for Dobson!
Yeah he'd good, but he's not what the Oiler's should be spending that much money for. The key word is "Defenseman!" He is not a top tier defenseman, he can't play defence. He's a second pairing most of the game, and a 1st pair on the PP. Keep him off the ice durring PK's, and when trying to protect the lead late in close games. They should have let the market bid on him. If another team wanted to pay him 10+/yr, then the should have let him walk and be their liability.
Bouch is a person with choices. People talk about these guys like they're GMs in 2k25. Get over yourselves.
Aaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaahaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaa absolute lunacy he is not worth that and never will be
Nurse getting 9.5 really sets the dollar value high for any player signing who is more valuable thane Nurse…
