Sharks re-hire Bob Boughner as assistant coach

Bob Boughner is set to re-join the coaching staff of Peter Deboer and the San Jose Sharks, who announced today that they have re-hired their former assistant coach. Boughner spent the previous two seasons as head coach of the Florida Panthers, but was fired shortly after their season came to an end in April.

Boughner’s first season with the Panthers saw them winning 44 games and finishing with 96 points on the season, but missed the playoffs by just one point. His second season, however, was much less eventful, as the Panthers only won 36 games and once again failed to make the playoffs.
