Wake With Elias- Aug 3, 2022: Canucks Make Additions To Coaching, Training Staff.

The Canucks issued a couple press releases yesterday, adding new staff for the upcoming season. The first was the hiring of a new goaltending coach for the AHL Abbotsford Canucks, Marko Torenius. Most recently the goaltending coach for SKA St Petersburg in the KHL, Torenius, who will replace Curtis Sanford (now the Toronto Maple Leafs goaltending coach) has a lot of experience with Canucks goalie guru Ian Clark. Torenius’ best-known product is Igor Shesterkin of the New York Rangers, who worked with his during his time at SKA, but he’s worked with a number of current NHL’ers, and is widely considered to be one of Finland’s finest goaltending coaches.
