Jonathan Boutin
History
Boutin, the first French-Canadian goalie drafted by Tampa, returned to Halifax of the QMJHL after a strong 2003 Lightning training camp only to lose his confidence and ultimately his starting job for the Mooseheads. After recovering from a mid-season concussion, Boutin won his first two games of the year for last-place Halifax, but was soon traded to P.E.I., a club partially owned by Lightning center Brad Richards. With a fresh start, Boutin played up to expectations, including a shutout in his first game, and was among QMJHL leaders in playoff goaltending (second in goals against average; third in save percentage).
Talent Analysis
Boutin fought lack of confidence, inconsistency, and the occasional soft goal early in his career.
