ROCHESTER, MI -- The International Hockey League (IHL) announced
that Fort Wayne goaltender Nick Boucher, a former standout at
Dartmouth, has been named the Southern Sports Supply IHL Goaltender
of the Week for the period ending Sunday, March 22.
Boucher earns the weekly honor for the fourth time this season. He
posted a 3-0-0-1 record for the week, playing just over 245 minutes
in four starts. He only allowed five goals against, giving him a

week. Boucher recorded his second shutout of the season, turning
aside all 25 shots he faced in a 3-0 win Saturday in Bloomington.
The 28-year-old native of Cobble Hill, British Columbia currently
leads all IHL goaltenders in goals against average (2.51), save
percentage (.918) and minutes played (2700:45) while being second
in wins with 24. Boucher is also riding a seven-game unbeaten
streak (6-0-0-1).

Goaltender of the Week include: Bloomington’s Jason Wolfe,
Kalamazoo’s Jason Tapp, Muskegon’s Clayton Pool and
