According to Bob McKenzie, the Toronto Maple Leafs talked with Guy Boucher last night after flying him in from Switzerland. Why do that knowing you’re going hard after Mike Babcock?
Backup plan? Maybe, but they could have waited 24 hours – or maybe, like McKenzie suggests, Boucher is being courted as an assistant coach for Mike Babcock.
Boucher met with Leaf brass last night and today but Babcock’s decision leaves Boucher in limbo.

Boucher may now be potential asst coach candidate for TOR but that would depend on Babcock wanting him and/or Boucher wanting to be asst.
