News: 4 days agoBouchard delivered two assists, including one on the power play, in a 7-2 loss to Toronto on Saturday.
Spin: He fired three shots, blocked three and delivered one hit. Bouchard has exploded out of the blocks this season, registering 21 points (seven goals, 14 assists) in 11 games. He's third overall in points and helpers. Bouchard is on an eight-game, 13-point scoring streak that includes 10 assists. Half of those assists have come with the man advantage. Bouchard likely won't keep this heat up, as he's on a 160-point pace. Bobby Orr holds the record for the most points by a defender in a single season, pouring in a whopping 139 points (37 goals, 102 assists) in 78 games in 1970-71. Bouchard is no Orr, and he's no Paul Coffey, either -- the latter came within one point of tying Orr in 1985-86. However, Bouchard is in a great spot offensively, especially with Connor McDavid piling up points at a rapid pace.
