Bruce Boudreau was so close.It's the narrative that's followed the Ducks coach throughout his career. Since his days with the Capitals, Boudreau's teams have gained areputation for turning in great regular seasons only tofall short of expectations in the playoffs.It happened again last week, when the Ducks took Tyler Glasnow Jersey a 3-2 series lead in the Western Conference finals, only to seethe Blackhawks win games 6 and 7 and advance to the Stanley Cup Final. That prompted questions over Boudreau's job security, speculation thatgeneral manager Bob Murray didn'tgo out of his way to quash Tuesday following the team's exit interviews.I havent talked to the coaching staff one bit, Murray told reporters, . I thought the coaching staff made strides this year. But Ive still got to talk to them. Im not ready to talk to Pablo Reyes Jersey them. Weve got to meet later.Ive got to sort things out in my mind. Im not one to do things quickly. Im evaluating the whole hockey team. Thats not a yes or Jason Martin Jersey a no. Ive got to evaluate everything.That's not exactly a ringing endorsement.Boudreau's reputation precedes him. He's the only coach in NHL history to lose six Game 7s, holding a 1-6 record in his career. And despite having coached talent-laden rosters that included stars like Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom, Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry, this was the first year one of his teams advanced to a conference finals.But the 2008Jack Adams Award winneris well-regarded as a players coach, and his regular-season succe ses are what keephim around.He has a career record of363-167-69, and his teams havefinished Melky Cabrera Jersey in first place in all but one of his eight seasons that year was 2011-12, when he was fired mid-season from the Capitals and hired by the Ducks le s than a week later.Still, it's the 21-15 postseason record in Anaheimthat gives cause for concern Pittsburgh Pirates Jersey .Boudreau spoke optimistically Tuesdayabout the Ducks' future,butMurray is weighing his options.Ive got to talk to some players, Murray said. Ive got to weigh everything. Im not thinking about anything right now. Again, I might sound slow to you guys, but it takes me awhile to sit back and replay everything."
