The head coach of the Ontario Hockey League's Erie Otters was looking for an edge against the rival London Knights during the 2015-16 season.
"I was thinking, 'All right, here's this 16-year-old that's getting a lot ice time — probably more than I think he deserves,'" Knoblauch recalled this week."'Tall, lanky, a little sleepy, maybe out of position a bit … let's take advantage of it.' But I was totally wrong. Bouchard also registered four assists in Game 1 of the opening round against the Los Angeles Kings and had the only goal in a 1-0 victory in Game 3 victory before setting up three teammates in Game 5 to clinch that series.
"How would you not be wide-eyed and listen to every word he says?" Knoblauch said of the four-time Stanley Cup champion."Really allowed him to take that next step.""Getting better and better," said the superstar centre, who has Edmonton in the conference final for the second time in three years."He thinks the game at such a high level."
"I don't see it half the time," Hyman said."If I'm standing in front of the goalie, he's usually gonna pick a corner, so I'm not too worried. When he wants to make tipable, it's tipable. And when he wants to 'Bouch Bomb' … you're not tipping it."
