Reid Boucher lands with Canucks after most recent waiver drop

It's been quite a month for Reid Boucher.

The 23-year-old forward was claimed off waivers by the Vancouver Canucks from the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday, marking his third NHL club since Dec. 2, with an AHL stint thrown in for good measure.

He was waived by the Devils a day after being claimed because another team - presumably Vancouver - had also put in a claim. In order to be assigned to New Jersey's AHL club, he had to once again be exposed, giving the Canucks another chance to scoop him up.

Boucher, a fourth-round pick of the Devils in 2011, has recorded 12 goals and 18 assists in 85 NHL games.
