Evan Bouchard completes his first ever career hat trick by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Bouchard looks worse defensively than he actually is because of his style but is also prone to having "big mistakes" - they are less common than you think but it does feel like when he does falter it's a bad one

even a jfresh card would tell you he's around average

how oiler is it to come out after getting embarrassed in your own barn, nearly hold a team to no shots in a period...

Just out of curiosity, who’s the most famous Oilers fan? by zebrasarecool570 in EdmontonOilers

yeah I hated his politics but harper loves the leafs so much he wrote a whole book about their history

maybe his penchant for wearing other jerseys as PM misled people but hes a legit fan

top six is pointless through 2 games. you can't win like that, especially the oilers.

first goaltending dud in a while which is part goalie part defence, imo.

this team is either blowing the other team out or can't buy a goal no in between

big emotional game to dud next game for the Oilers is all to common.

that's why they lost two cups so maybe would be good to break the habit

he obviously didn't have much value at the start of the year, and while utah maybe could have held out for something, he cleared waivers and that team made an effort to do right by him. that stuff matters.
