‘He’s been through the grind’ | Penn State men’s hockey’s Gadowsky speaks on assistant coaching change

On Oct. 28, 2005, Guy Gadowsky and Keith Fisher stood side-by-side behind the visitors bench in Joyce Arena. Princeton opened its season on the road against Notre Dame, and it marked the first game in Gadowsky and Fisher’s careers that they served on the same staff.

Fast forward 20 years and the two’s reign on college hockey came to a close as Lindenwood poached Fisher from the Nittany Lions to become its head coach. Decades of partnership which included a combined seven NCAA Tournament appearances, two conference postseason championships, one conference regular-season title and one Frozen Four berth is now just a memory.
