Playing career[]

Boucher attended Yale University where he played four seasons (2004 - 2008) of NCAA Division I men's hockey.

Undrafted, he made his professional debut in Germany playing with ERC Ingolstadt of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga during the 2008–09 season.[1] After one season with Ingolstadt, recording just 4 points in 47 games, Boucher returned to North America and played semi-professionally in the LNAH with the Saint-Georges Cool FM 103.5.

After three seasons developing within Quebec, Boucher embarked on a return to Germany with ERC Ingolstadt from the 2012–13 season. Establishing himself amongst the forwards in a depth checking line role, Boucher remained with Ingolstadt and appeared in 172 games with the club.

On June 1, 2015, Boucher left ERC Ingolstadt to sign a one-year contract with fellow DEL club, Kölner Haie.[2]
