We were thrilled to visit the Northern Village of Ile-a-la Crosse for the Northern Regional Meeting today. The morning featured updates from SUMA, including a discussion on the future of SUMA’s Northern Caucus, and our partners, and the Urban Spotlight segment. (1/n)
“Evan Bouchard didn’t deserve the Norris”
- Evan Bouchard has better defensive metrics than all of Norris finalists
- Evan Bouchard led the Norris finalists by a combined 51 points
- Evan Bouchard faced the 10th most difficult competition in the entire league
- Evan Bouchard played more PK relative to this teammates than any of the Norris Finalists
- Evan Bouchard has a Goal Dif On Ice vs Off Ice higher than all Norris finalists combined by a 41 goal margin
- Evan Bouchard played with the worst goaltending in the NHL and the worst defensive system
- Evan Bouchard had less giveaways leading to goals than the other finalists combined
- Evan Bouchard was lights out to end the season while some of the finalists ghosted
- Evan Bouchard should be the Norris winner but he’s not because of Eastern pundits and morons who watch Tiktok Clips to base their perception of a player
If you believe he’s not deserving of the Norris, that says something about your hockey knowledge. Biggest litmus test in hockey
“I think people forget we just got Leo and Hysy (Hyman) back. We haven’t ran our normal sets in some time. We( the PP) will be part of the series,” McDavid on the power play.
Cale Makar just completely gives the opponent a breakaway and then proceeds to slash Byfield resulting in a penalty shot
This clip will not go viral for 2 reasons
- It’s not Evan Bouchard
- Makar actually has a good goalie
Playoff Choker
When Karlsson won his Norris trophies he had 101 points and was -26 in 2022-23, and had 82 points and was a -2 in 2015-16
Bouchard has 95 points and is +25
If the NHL writers don’t give Bouchard the Norris because of his defensive game then they are massive hypocrites.
@itsWozzz Paul Maurice is a solid coach, he knows if you shutdown McDavid then Oilers are easily beatable. Everytime 97 has the puck the Cats sworm him. Fuck I hate the Panthers!!!
