Tampa Bay Lightning‘ undrafted 2nd year center Alex Barre-Boulet(12) is back at it with affiliate Syracuse Crunch grabbing 8 goals and 7 assists in 18 AHL games, which ties him for the early team lead in scoring.
The small-ish 5’9″ 172 lbs. forward led the league last season in goals (34) for a single player and a rookie, most points as a first year player and was voted Rookie Of The Year (Red Garrett Memorial Award).
He was more than a point-per-game in the last three campaigns of junior hockey with Drummondville Voltigeurs and Blainville-Boisbriand Armada of the QMJHL but in his last year had almost an assists-per-outing and two points in each amassing 53-63-116 in 65 games.
The 22-year still has another year left in his entry level deal before he is set to become a restricted free agent but more immediate would be his 1st NHL recall, which seems imminent.
