Report: Bruce Boudreau “most likely” to return as head coach of the Vancouver Canucks next season

“The feeling around the Canucks right now is — remember a couple of weeks ago, two, three weeks ago, Donnie, we talked about, ‘is he gonna be back?’ And there was word coming out that the Canucks weren’t going to. […] Generally, I’m seeing a shift in thinking with the Canucks and Boudreau. Feeling is right now, most likely, he’s gonna be back, but it’s not 100 percent. […] I think the Canucks know it would be a P.R. disaster if you don’t bring him back. Look at his record: [30–13–9]. He’s forcing their hand, Donnie. Fans are chanting his name outside the arena post-game, for goodness’ sakes. Focus is still to make the playoffs. The only way, I’ve been told, this doesn’t happen: is if Bruce doesn’t want it to happen.”
