1. Bruce Boudreau
Head coaching resume: Anaheim Ducks (2011-2016, four first-place finishes in the Pacific Division, four playoff appearances), Washington Capitals (2007-2012, three first-place finishes in the Southeast Division, four playoff appearances), Hershey Bears/AHL (2005-2008), Manchester Monarchs/AHL (2001-2005), Lowell Lock Monsters/AHL (1999-2001), Mississippi Sea Wolves/ECHL (1996-1999)
The skinny: The dust had barely settled in the Stampede City on Tuesday before the questions began. Boudreau, 61, was fired on Friday by the Anaheim Ducks … Bob Hartley fired Tuesday by the Calgary Flames. Although Brad Treliving insisted no one is waiting in the on-deck circle, Boudreau is a fine candidate to fill the vacancy given his experience with maximizing the most of his stars (Alex Ovechkin, Corey Perry, Ryan Getzlaf).
