I won't even watch this.
From the NHL game center.. Bouchard and Ekholm are -2 ES.. and one PP goal against.
Skinner is 4G on 8 shots.. thanks for comin' out bud
Whatever they practiced yesterday they should try to unlearn it asap

Just remember Ekholm is almost certainly going to get worse for the next 3 years.

This team is looking super motivated to get crushed again, like the Colorado game.
Not sure what this system change is that they've been talking about, but a .500 save percentage for Stu always helps (so far).
The body language at the end of that period was baddd... these guys are going to mail this one in. Draisaitl in particular wants nothing to do with this game. Hell of an effort for the Hockey Fights Cancer game; if there's a game that you should show some fight, it would be this one.
Our overpaid group of millionaires isn't interested at all in playing tonight, and that's so embarrassing. Ruthlessly embarrassing.

It's the best player on the teams fault because of his body language when they're down 4-0?
I'm guessing Draisaitl probably isn't thrilled about 4 goals on 8 shots. It's bad enough that they have to score 5 a night to have a chance. Let alone in the first period.
Imagine looking at this goalie and defence core and knowing you have to carry them around on your back for the rest of your career.

Lol Skinner out with a .500. Good he shouldn't be given a chance to make that look less disgusting.

I wish McDavid wasn't such a great guy to enable this management team to put this squad on the ice.
Sad.

If you only listened to oilers butt kisser media, stu hasn’t played a bad game since he was 10 years old!

Bouchard has been playing weak sauce D in this one as well. A number of the Stars goals, he's just given up completely on the play.
I'm so done with these clowns.

He just won’t ever get it together and neither will this goaltending.
I seriously doubt we even make playoffs. This is past pathetic

Never get it together?? The best playoff defence man in decades? Yeah he'll be fine.
The 6'5 225lb teddy bear he plays with though is going to continue to be a massive liability. Remember how good this defence looked for the first 3 rounds last year? Before 14 lied about his injury to get back in the lineup? Between him and (9.)25 they have plenty of problems on defence but I'm pretty sure Bouchards play in October/November is going to be pretty far down the list.

Bouchard is too physically weak to play NHL defence, he loses the majority of his puck battles, and it ends up in his net.. he's all stick check.. and he's not very good at it.
That was a bare ass spanking

Yet, 3 playoffs in a row Bouch ends up one of our most effective D on both sides of the puck. When his head is in the game he is stealing pucks and making endless solid breakout plays. When his head is not in the game, well, you get what most of our guys are bringing this season.
I worry much less about guys that I know will bring it when the chips are down. I worry much more about guys that I know will crumble or just play as crappy as I see them now when the games matter (Skinner, Nurse two of the biggest examples).
