What if you can go home again? That’s the question it seems Bruce Boudreau is asking himself. But what’s real and what’s ‘Leafs talk is just good business’ about these rumours?
Let’s back up to the situation on the Minnesota Wild. The Wild put Paul Fenton in as GM in May of 2018, and just over one year later they fired him after he made some disastrous moves. Fenton inherited Boudreau as coach from the former GM, the long time boss of the team, Chuck Fletcher (now with the Flyers).
When the Wild realized Fenton was a gigantic mistake, they let him go and hired Bill Guerin, who has been an an assistant GM in the NHL, and has run the very successful AHL affiliate of the Penguins, but has never been an NHL GM.
