I don’t think Bouchard is the type of Dman they’d be targeting. If Dobson was in the deal, they’d probably consider it

Lol

I probably wouldn't do it. A few of our own guys need contract extensions upcoming and i'd rather keep the 2 cost controlled guys for the time being.

As for Nylander, I am really surprised how good he is. We don't see him lots in Edmonton, and all I heard was how disappointing his season was the year after his extension. Having watched him more due to the division this year, he's nasty. If Nylander were ever to be traded, I'd for sure be interested, just not at the cost of cheap, controlled players.

Ugh I’m so tired of nylander trades just turn into giant arguments

The defence is the issue not the forwards. The only feasible way we are getting a good defence under the cap is to grow them. Don’t trade bouchard for wingers especially RW. Edmonton can sign nuge and one good LW this summer and they will be set.

It's the Toronto media and a lot of the local fan base. If you're born in Ontario (especially the GTA) then your game is faultless. To make up for that, other players must take their fair share of criticism plus that of the hometown heroes. It's actually nuaseating.
