Breaking news out of Spokane as former Winnipeg Jets assistant bench boss Brad Lauer has been hired as the new head coach for the Chiefs.
Just months after being fired by the Winnipeg Jets, former assistant coach Brad Lauer has found new employment as the new head coach for the WHL's Spokane Chiefs.
The former Jets assistant coach spent two years behind the bench under retired head coach Rick Bowness. Lauer was mainly responsible for delegating the power play, which ultimately lead to his demise as the Jets ranked 22nd in that department.
