Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers bounced back with a 5-2 win against the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday. This came after a 3-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens the night before. The team played well, but Evan Bouchard’s solo goal stood out as the highlight.
Bouchard scored early in the game, showing great skill and composure. He skated through the neutral zone, toe-dragged past Thomas Chabot, and lifted the puck over Linus Ullmark’s glove. The goal showed his patience and confidence, earning praise from Connor McDavid.
“Beautiful goal, beautiful goal,” McDavid said after the game. “Boucha is a great player. So patient with it. Never in a rush. You could see, you can see both those things on that goal, beautiful move and a beautiful finish.”
