will be interesting to see Boudreaus decision. Obviously there's Flames bias here, but I have to think a roster with Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett, Brodie, Hamilton and the 6th overall as the core players has to be enticing to an NHL coach. Minnesota is obviously a bit further ahead in their development and has a bit of an older roster, but might be an interesting option too if you think they're close. Ottawa ... no idea. They have some nice pieces but for some reason I don't picture them as contenders any time soon.
My guess is that if the Flames really want Boudreau, there's a good chance that he'll come.
