This is a move to try and get in this season IMO. Trouble is, no new coach will help the atrocious goaltending they have received all year. I can see Yzerman going after a G in the next couple days to shore that up and see if they can go on a run.
Maybe the locker room was in such bad shape that he decided to end it now rather than let things fester? Bring a coach in for the interim and pick his brain at the end of the season to why they tuned out Boucher and if any bad seeds also need to be shown the door. I personally don't think it's a bad time to make the chance given they were showing no signs of turning it around. Nothing to lose really as Boucher was going to be let go regardless.
