Playing career[]

Boh began his major junior career with the Brandon Wheat Kings of the WHL in 1991, however, he was dealt to the Spokane Chiefs after only 4 games.[1] In the off-season he was selected 261st overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft. The following season Boh began with the Chiefs but was subsequently traded to the Medicine Hat Tigers.[2] The 1993–94 season saw Boh start with the Tigers, before being traded again, this time to the Tri-City Americans in exchange for Marc Hussey.[3] Following the culmination of the Americans season Boh turned professional, signing with the Columbus Chill of the ECHL who served as the Canucks secondary affiliate team.[4]

Boh remained with the Chill for the 1994–95 season, registering 30 points in 58 games, whilst also playing 20 games for the IHL's Atlanta Knights. The following season, he began with the Chill, before being acquired by the Louisiana IceGators also of the ECHL,[5] with whom he finished the season. Over the course of the ECHL season he scored 61 points in 54 games and was named as a Second Team All-Star.[1][6] In addition he also played the IHL's Minnesota Moose and the Rochester Americans of the AHL. The following year with the IceGators, he had a career year scoring 65 points in 52 games, helping the team make it to the Kelly Cup final, ultimately losing to the South Carolina Stingrays. Boh also played 3 games with the Houston Aeros of the IHL.

The 1997–98 season saw Boh sign with the CHL's Fayetteville Force where he tallied 58 points in 56 games. He also played 6 games for the IHL's Fort Wayne Komets. Boh returned to the ECHL the following year, playing for the Toledo Storm scoring 39 points in 65 games. Boh began the 1999–00 season with the Storm, however, after 10 games with the team he was traded to the Arkansas RiverBlades in exchange for Jarret Whidden.[7] After 20 games with the RiverBlades Boh moved to the Europe in order to play for the Cardiff Devils of the BISL. He only played 12 games in Wales however, before being released for disciplinary reasons.[8][9] He subsequently returned to the ECHL and played for the Peoria Rivermen. The Rivermen had an extended playoff run, culminating in them lifting the Kelly Cup.[10]

He began the 2000–01 season with the CHL's San Antonio Iguanas before moving to Finland in order to play for SM-liiga side Jokerit.[11] Boh played 7 games for the Helsinki-based outfit before returning the U.K. in order to play for the London Knights. The Knights were down a defenceman after Lee Sorochan left the club; coincidentally for Jokerit.[8][9][12] Boh finished the season with the Knights, who made it to the play-off finals before narrowly losing to the Sheffield Steelers. The 2001–02 season saw Boh sign with the Colorado Gold Kings of the WCHL for whom he scored 47 points in 69 games.[1]
