Frank Boucher (ice hockey coach)

He served as the head coach of the Ottawa RCAF Flyers which represented the Canadian national hockey team in ice hockey at the 1948 Winter Olympics.

Despite two lopsided losses in exhibition games before the Olympics, Canadian Amateur Hockey Association vice-president Norman Dawe held an emergency meeting and retained Boucher as coach, and agreed to bolster the team from the best available players.
