Guy Boucher is throwing his own name back in the NHL coaching carousel.
The former Tampa Bay Lightning head coach told TVA Sports' L.A. Lariviere that multiple teams have contacted him to discuss vacant coaching positions around the NHL.
Lariviere believes the Edmonton Oilers and Philadelphia Flyers are among those interested.
Boucher was canned 31 games into his third season with the Lightning after seeing consistent regression in the team's performance.
He was hired by SC Bern of the Swiss Elite League in January of 2014.
