Given the defense has been pretty awful overall I think it is time to give Bouchard a try. I know it has only been 4 games but it isnt like most of our guys are about to turn a corner. The Oilers have 9 D on the roster and only Bouchard hasnt played a game. 5 of the 9 are what they are and it clearly isnt enough. 3 (Bear, Jones, and Lagesson) have hope for improvement. 2 of those were recently scratched and the 3rd had a decent game. That leaves Bouchard as the only option currently on the roster who gives me much hope to elevate the group in any meaningful way
I am willing to bet he is instantly out bet puck mover, something that has been terrible through 4 games.
While he is overly physical he is bigger than most and for a team with no heart and soul maybe he could bring some extra physicality.
I have only read and not really seen enough to speak on how his defensive game has evolved. I cant imagine it is horrible enough to bring down the squad now given how bad they have been.
It also isnt like he has been rushed. He is in his +3 year having a full year of AHL experience and 20+ games in Swedan. Every D drafted ahead of him and many others after from that draft are logging regular minutes and I cant see why he shouldn't be given a chance.
