The Ottawa Senators announced Tuesday that the team has signed Boston University freshman forward Tyler Boucher to a three-year, entry-level contract.<\/p>\n

Boucher has registered three points (two goals, one assist) and a team-leading 34 penalty minutes while skating in 17 games for the Terriers this season.<\/p>\n

“We’re pleased to have Tyler under contract,” said Ottawa GM Pierre Dorion in a statement. “He’s a power forward who plays a heavy, physical game. He’s driven, is strong with the puck, has a big shot and goes hard to the net. His good hands in tight areas will be of particular benefit to him going forward.<\/p>\n

“We expect him to be an important part of this team’s future.”<\/p>\n

A native of Haddonfield, N.J., Boucher was the Senators’ first-round pick (10th overall) in the 2021 NHL Draft after two seasons with the USA Hockey National Team Development Program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
