Minnesota Wild fire head coach Bruce Boudreau
The Minnesota Wild announced on Friday that Bruce Boudreau has been relieved of his duties as head coach.
Minnesota (27-23-7) currently sits three points back of the Arizona Coyotes for the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
Despite a record of 6-3-1 over the last 10 games, the moves comes after the Wild fell 4-3 to the New York Rangers in a shootout on Thursday night.
A replacement has yet to be named.
Minnesota’s next game is at home on Saturday against the San Jose Sharks.
Boudreau becomes the eighth NHL coach to be fired this season.
