Defenseman Evan Bouchard has been on a roll this season, especially in the playoffs, accumulating 17 points in 12 games.

The 23-year-old fullback will be a free agent with compensation on July 1, and the Oilers are so tight under the salary cap that Ken Holland will have a hard time getting along with him.

It makes a lot of sense, but I personally doubt Kent Hughes would do anything like this. If the Habs GM decides to do it, the Oilers would definitely have a hard time matching the offer. To be continued...
