Yes.
He was hours away from becoming the Leafs head coach before Babcock turned out to be using Buffalo as leverage, he was then offered a job on Babcock's staff as an A-Coach. Babcock had previously offered him an a-coach spot in Detroit. Boucher refused it because there was a reasonably high chance he'd be offered another head coaching job, which he was by Ottawa.
The weird thing is, you'd think that backstory would have been a lot more publicized when Boucher was hired by Ottawa. I don't think I've ever heard it mentioned on a broadcast of a Leafs/Sens game, even back in his first season with Ottawa when it would have been relevant.
Yeah I don't remember that at all. I do remember how he was coaching on another continent though.
