Michigan hockey head coach Brandon Naurato added two assistant coaches to his staff on Monday.

Naurato, who led the Wolverines to the Big Ten Tournament title and a run to the 2022 NCAA Frozen Four, hired defensive-minded coaches Mathew Deschamps and Kevin Reiter.

"Last season we led the country in goals for," Livonia native Naurato said in a statement. "With the addition of Deschamps and Reiter, they are going to make the defensive side of our game that much better and it will have a huge impact on Michigan hockey."

Deschamps spent the last three seasons with the Chicago Steel of the USHL, first as assistant coach and then associate head coach.
