Prospect Info: At 10th Overall The Senators Select Tyler Boucher

[LastWordArmy]

Born in Haddonfield, New Jersey, forward Tyler Boucher has spent the last two seasons with the United States National Team Development Program. This past year he was limited by a series knee injury suffered in January. He played just 12 games for the Under-18 team, scoring six goals and five assists for 11 points. Rehabbing his injured knee, he also played two games for the Under-17 team, scoring three goals. Boucher ended up missing out on the IIHF Under-18 World Championships as a result of his injury.

In 2019-20 Boucher put up nine goals and 17 assists for 26 points in 43 games with the Under-17 team. He also won a silver medal playing with Team USA at the Under-17 World Hockey Challenge. Boucher scored a goal and three assists for four points in six tournament games.

Boucher is the son of former NHL goaltender Brian Boucher. He is committed to playing NCAA Division One hockey for the Boston University Terriers next season. Should he change his mind and opt to head to the CHL, his rights are owned by the Ottawa 67s who took him in the 7th round of the 2019 OHL Draft.

[BUCKLE UP]

Boucher>>>>>>>Nhl

 

[Xspyrit]

Let's rebuild the rebuild


Ok so I'm taking back anything I said on the subject recently... Really wish we drafted a goalie. Damn the F

Man, they’ve earned enough of my trust but they better be right about this lol. 29th on Bob’s ranking.

Could have possibly gotten him with our early 2nd

Edit : ok maybe not with NYR's speculation but couldn't we trade with NYR?Theyhave other assets we might like?

 

[Liver King]

Cool! Powerforwards babyy

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Don’t mind this selection at all.

 

[4thlineduster]

Is it just me or did he not look overly happy?

 

[DrakeAndJosh]

[Taluss]

Heavy hitting, finishes checks. Definitely fits Ottawa’s team

 

[Taluss]

Is it just me or did he not look overly happy?

agreed unfortunately

 

[Lays]

Great pick for you guys, no joke. Huge fan of Boucher’s game and wanted him at 15 for NYR because it was widely reported we liked him

 

[PlayOn]

Unexpected but very on brand. No one will ever say the Sens are easy to play against.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

I'm gonna enjoy reading anyone defending this pick. You're telling me big brain Dorion couldn't trade down?

 

[cudi]

He looked depressed as f*** lol. I mean, i kinda get it

 

[Hale The Villain]

Huge reach

Throwback powerforward that is mean and nails guys. Has decent hands and good speed but questionable playmaking and IQ.

 

[Son of Donegal]

A bit of a reach, but in this draft > follow your gut. The kid is going to be an animal.

 

[Senscore]

Dorion putting his nuts on the table here

 

[Lays]

I'm gonna enjoy reading anyone defending this pick. You're telling me big brain Dorion couldn't trade down?

NYR were taking him at 15

 

[topshelf15]

Why didnt we trade down here...No f***en excuses,WTF are we trying to do here

 

[Ice-Tray]

Bank Street Bullies Baby!!!!!!

 

[SENStastic]

Why not trade down at the very least.. he's a left winger too. What is PD thinking here??

 

[scallionjj11]

Don’t think he’s depressed, I think he’s in shock since he was projected to go near the 2nd round

 

[JimmySpaetzle]

Guy thought he was going to a cup contender and ends up in Ottawa lmao

 

[Liver King]

Swing for the fences I like it

 

[Cosmix]

Shocked! #29 on the Bob McKenzie list. Quite a reach. The scouts better hope this turns out to be the best player amongst those rated higher and still available. Time will tell.
