Skinners side to side effectiveness is almost nonexistent some games.
The book has been wide open on him for ages.

Sell the farm for Binnington? :)
We really need a young Mike Smith. Athletic goalie with limitless never wavering self-confidence.
A clone of Hasek would also be acceptable.
This game though, seems like we were not playing near how we can. Should have lots of energy left for tomorrow. Better get it together quick.

Bouchard showing why I he won't come anyway near the Team Canada Olympic team.. cough up to the slot.. then doesn't bother (totally blind to) covering wide open guy behind him for the wide open net goal.. brutal coverage.. guy is not a rookie anymore.
S. Skinner's lateral motion (lack of) on full display
bright spots.. Klingberg getting better.. looking like a good D-man that cost zero assets.. and Savoie had a decent game.. kid has NHL boots.. the 1st and most important ingredient.. good assist on the 2-1 goal..
way too many dopey turnovers. as per
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)

I'm done with Bouchard. That dude is the most useless defensive hockey player I've ever seen, and I've seen some real duds in the defensive zone. Holy hell, did he literally use the break to go to "I want to be a complete train wreck on defense" school? Looking at the highlights of this game, there are so many that involve Bouch just being Bouch. Dress him up in a clown suit before the next game and make that his permanent kit until he figures out that he's in the NHL and that garbage doesn't fly.
I'm over that scrub.
After watching TC defensemen take on the best in the world (and Doughty just back from a major injury) and playing their absolute hearts out, to now seeing Bouchard looking even worse than he did before... is just not effing acceptable anymore. Figure the damn game out, Evan. Holy F.
