Five questions with new Lightning assistant coach Brad Lauer
On Tuesday, the Tampa Bay Lightning hired former Anaheim assistant coach Brad Lauer to fill the same role with the Bolts. Lauer replaces George Gwozdecky, who left after the 2014-15 season to pursue other opportunities, on the Lightning coaching staff. Lauer took a few moments out of his day to speak to TampaBayLightning.com about his new position, shifting from the West to the East Coast and what it’s like to join a reigning Cup finalist.
Congratulations on the position and joining the organization, Brad. What will be your primary role as an assistant with the Lightning?
