Tyler Boucher (born January 16, 2003) is an American professional ice hockey right winger for the Ottawa 67's of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) as a prospect to the Ottawa Senators of the National Hockey League (NHL). Boucher was drafted in the first round, tenth overall, by the Senators in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. His father, Brian Boucher, is a former NHL goaltender.[1][2]

Playing career

After beginning the 2021–22 season with the Boston University Terriers of Hockey East, collecting just 2 goals and 3 points through 17 games, Boucher opted to conclude his collegiate career and was signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Ottawa Senators on December 28, 2021.[3] Thus ineligible to continue with Boston, Boucher joined the Ottawa 67's major junior team to continue his development. He was originally drafted by the 67's in the 2019 OHL Priority Selection 143rd overall.[4]
