RW Tyler Boucher - Belleville Senators, AHL (2021, 10th, OTT)

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I thought he was OK for Belleville in the two games they played against Laval.

I'd trade Farrell for him, but I really dislike Farrell.

I think Boucher is worth acquiring for other teams and just know he's still a long-term project, but could be a nice 4th line forward. A potential late bloomer, but as sens fans have said, he isn't producing at the AHL like even at a .33 ppg.

with his upside being a 4th liner its one of those situations of is it even worth ottawa trading him haha

might as well keep the physical forward who plays 2 games a year with the prayer that he can be a 4th liner in the nhl. The hitting is there. Nothing else is. If health can be there then i can see him getting a 4th line role.

If he doesn't play an NHL game, I believe he'll be the first top 10 pick since Ryan Sittler (1992, 7th overall, Flyers) to never play an NHL game.

I do think he'll probably get one at some point though

Regret to inform the loyal Sens fans that the days of having a hockey career in general will come to end sooner than later. Best of luck to Tyler in his future endeavors.

It's unclear what Dorion was thinking when he made this pick. You can usually get a player like this in 2nd-3rd at the draft.

How he was rated before the draft? I remember he was a reach. But I'm not sure if he was still rated as a first rounder or not

Well, just googled. He was rated as late first rounder (29) in McKenzie list (as voted by scouts)

I think it's closer to the second round, but not in the top 10. I liked L'Heureux more in the draft, even though he was picked by the Preds at #27.
