Go All In For Evan Bouchard

Post by smilinjoefission »

Extort the Oilers again, make them pay, upwards $12mill per for 8 season, only cost us a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. They got McJesus to sign in a few seasons, and they are paying Draisaitl a mint, and also Nurse (useless)...why not?

Have you watched him play?

He has big holes in his game.

Blues don't have the picks to do offer sheets.

Bouchard is a pinhead.

All world skills and a 10 cent brain.
We already have one of those.

The Blues need Sam Bennet as the second line center but I'm not sure they can afford it.

Defensively, yes. But every Oiler defenseman looks like they got holes in their game playing in front of their goaltenders.

Signing Bouchard to $12M x 8 years would cost 4 1sts, not a 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

He’s also horrible defensively and soft. Excellent offensively but Edmonton can keep him IMO.

No they don’t. Watch Ek play the game. It’s widely known Bouchard has some huge warts.

We can afford him, but that contract will only be good for about 2 possibly 3 season then 4 seasons of remorse.

Uhhh, a hard NO for Bouchard. If the fans have a hard time watching Kyrou and the appearance of a lack of compete, they will lose their mind with Bouchard... He is soft like butter and his brain just shuts off at times...
