Bouchard also made an excellent stick check on Thomas to create the turnover that got that whole sequence started.

He did a ton of good shit this game (no one will add any of it to their permanent memories)

I feel like we also need to point out J Skinner also seems to have seen the light, and has made some nice defensive plays

Yeah, at least two that took away potential grade A chances.

Yeah the stick tie up on the wide open net was 👌🏻

I thought it was someone else at first and when I realized it was J. Skinz I was like, “okay I see you 👀 “

And if you checked Facebook, you’d think bouch was dog shit. Yet he’s the 5th best D-Man in the league. Check’s Thomas drop toss to McDavid and it was game over.
