The actions (inactions) of the coach in situations like this are almost never irrelevant. There's no question that the player handled this incredibly poorly, but questions can be asked as to whether the coach may have played a role in creating the situation in the first place. If the regular goalie was sick, that does mitigate Boughner's culpability, however.
