A former Green Knight will be on the NHL bench after St. Norbert College alum Spencer Carbery was hired as an Assistant Coach for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Carbery graduated from SNC in 2006 after playing 87 career hockey games for the Green Knights and scored exactly 100 points. Carbery knows about what it takes to reach a title, having been on 2004 and 2006 NCAA Division III runner-up teams. Carbery started coaching in 2010 and his most recent stop was in the AHL as the head coach of the Hershey Bears and was the league’s Coach of the Year this past season. In a statement, Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe complimented Carbery, saying he has a great mind for the game as well as the necessary work ethic, energy, and communication skills the Leafs are looking for.
