Reid Boucher (born September 8, 1993) is an American ice hockey player who is currently playing for the Albany Devils in the American Hockey League as a prospect for the New Jersey Devils of the National Hockey League. He was selected by the Devils in the 4th round (99th overall) in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft.[1]
Playing career[]
In his second season with the Sarnia Sting of the Ontario Hockey League, Boucher broke the former 58 goals in a season record in the team held by NHL player Steven Stamkos with his fifth hat trick in the season against Saginaw Spirit.[2] Boucher was rewarded for his outstanding play during the 2012–13 OHL season by being named to the OHL's First All-Star Team.[3]
On March 13, 2013, the New Jersey Devils signed Boucher to a three-year entry-level contract.[4][5] Reid scored one goal and had two assists in his first game with Albany in the 2012–13 season debut on March 30, 2013.[6]
On December 4, 2013, Boucher was promoted to the Devils for the first time, following an injury to Ryan Carter.[7] He got an assist and was plus 2 in his debut and became the first Devil to score in a shootout that season.[8] Boucher scored his first NHL goal on December 18, 2013 against Robin Lehner of the Ottawa Senators in a 5 - 2 win.[9]
