Former Lightning head coach Guy Boucher is back in Tampa for the first time since he was relieved of his duties in favor of Jon Cooper four years ago. This time he’ll be coaching from the visiting team’s bench, but he’s not looking for revenge. "I'm so grateful... Steve Yzerman and Mr. Vinik, Julien (BriseBois), I owe them a lot. As a family we had four years down there, a really good life. I was very fortunate he gave me the reins of an NHL team.” [Tampa Bay Times]
GM Steve Yzerman is listening to offers on pending UFA goalie Ben Bishop, but so far nothing has enticed him to make a trade.
