Bouchard scored a power-play goal on two shots, blocked two shots and added a pair of hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard's long-range goal at 19:13 of the second period gave the Oilers a 3-1 lead. The 21-year-old blueliner has played a limited role this season with just five points in 13 appearances. He's unlikely to see much playing time once the playoffs roll around, but head coach Dave Tippett will want the young defenseman ready to go in case he's needed due to injuries on the blue line.

Bouchard was promoted to the active roster Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear if Bouchard will be in the lineup Tuesday versus the Canucks. If he plays, it'll likely either be in a seven-defensemen lineup or to replace Caleb Jones on the third pairing.

Bouchard was assigned to the taxi squad Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard hasn't played an NHL game since March 1. The 21-year-old flashed his upside before this extended stay on the bench, as he has produced four points and 34 shots on net through 12 games this year.

Bouchard was promoted to the active roster Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Tyson Barrie (lower body) is a game-time decision. Bouchard is the presumptive replacement if Barrie can't go. After a strong start to the year, Bouchard has played just one of the last nine games.

Bouchard was designated for the taxi squad Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard has played just one NHL game since Feb. 25, as the 21-year-old was bumped out of the rotation when Ethan Bear returned from injured reserve. While on the taxi squad, Bouchard -- who has recorded four points through 12 NHL games this year -- can continue practicing and traveling with the big club.

Bouchard recorded two assists and a game-high eight shots on goal in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard helped give the Oilers some depth scoring, assisting on both of Alex Chiasson's tallies in the contest. The 21-year-old Bouchard has racked up four points, 22 shots and an even plus-minus rating in six appearances. While Ethan Bear (head) is close to returning, Bouchard's place in the lineup appears secure, especially if William Lagesson (upper body) ends up missing time.

Bouchard scored a goal on two shots, doled out four hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard gave the Oilers a lead at 17:19 as he cashed in on a set-up from Jujhar Khaira. The tally was Bouchard's second of his career -- his only other goal came in the 2018-19 season. The 21-year-old Bouchard has held onto a third-pairing role with Ethan Bear (head) sidelined. Bouchard has two points, 12 shots, five hits and four blocked shots through four contests.

Bouchard (back) posted an assist and four shots on goal in 16:56 during Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard's season debut was a success, and he saw a regular shift. His helper came on Jesse Puljujarvi's second-period tally. William Lagesson and Slater Koekkoek split duties on the third pairing with Bouchard. It remains to be seen if the 21-year-old Bouchard will earn an everyday role going forward. The 10th overall pick from 2018 would probably benefit from another season with AHL Bakersfield, but cross-border quarantining would reduce that benefit drastically, so it's possible Bouchard only drops down to the taxi squad if he ends up as a rotational player.

Bouchard (back) was promoted from the taxi squad Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard is expected to make his season debut in Tuesday's game against the Senators. The 2018 first-round pick (10th overall) hasn't played an NHL game since his rookie season, but he's been solid in the AHL and the Swedish Hockey League since then. This may be an opportunity to earn more playing time moving forward.

Bouchard (back) will not suit up for Sunday's contest against the Senators, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard has yet to suit up for a game this season while dealing with a back injury. It's unclear when he'll be able to return or if he'll even crack the lineup when he's healthy again.
