Reid Boucher News

Boucher, 21, was the 99th overall pick in the 2011 NHL Draft. He had seven points (2G /5A) in 23 games with the Devils a season ago and could make his season debut tomorrow vs. the Penguins. Boucher has recorded one goal and three assists in six games with Albany and skated on a line with Adam Henrique and Michael Ryder on Monday morning. Whether or not he plays tomorrow likely depends on the health of Michael Cammalleri who was not on the ice this morning because he was undergoing X-rays.

Boucher averaged 11:21 in 23 games with the Devils. He was able to score two goals and added five assists in his first stint with New Jersey.

Boucher was the 99th overall pick in the 2011 NHL Draft. The 20-year-old is in his second season with the Albany Devils, where he has 10 goals and 18 points in 21 games. He is expected to make his NHL debut tonight in a top-9 role according to GM Lou Lamoriello.

Boucher leads the OHL with 62 goals in 65 games this season for the Sarnia Sting, 14 goals more than any other player in the league. His contract doesn't begin until 2013-14 so he's not eligible to play in NHL this season.
