Sharks name coaching staff for 2020-21 season

The final coaching roster has been submitted and as predicted, the Sharks organization has announced the full coaching staff for both the NHL and AHL teams. Head coach Bob Boughner has won the full-time roll. As rumored, former AHL Chicago Wolves head coach Rocky Thompson will be joining as an associate coach, handling the defense and power play. John Madden — previously the head coach for the AHL Cleveland Monsters, a 13-year NHL veteran and 2001 Selke winner — will handle the forwards and penalty kill. Mike Ricci returns in a development role, as well as Dan Darrow and Charlie Townsend on video.
