Former NHLer Brent Seabrook lands behind the bench on interim basis
Back in March, three-time Stanley Cup champion Brent Seabrook announced his retirement from the National Hockey League after fifteen seasons. Seabrook is still under contract with the Tampa Bay Lightning after they acquired him in late-July and can't officially submit his official retirement papers until his contract ends in 2024.
On Wednesday, Seabrook joined the WHL's Vancouver Giants as an assistant coach on an interim basis because one of their coaches, Michael Dyck, is away with Team Canada for the 2022 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship.
"I'm grateful to the Vancouver Giants ownership, management staff, and the Tampa Bay Lightning for allowing me this opportunity to give back to the game and to help out while Michael Dyck goes for Gold," said Brent Seabrook. "I'm looking forward to being part of the great culture the Giants have created and I can't wait to get started."
Seabrook, 36, played 1,114 regular season games in the NHL, all with the Chicago Blackhawks, where he tallied 464 points (103 G, 361 A), 661 penalty minutes, and was a +111. During his career, he won the Stanley Cup three times (2010, 2013, 2015), and added an Olympic gold medal in 2010.
The Vancouver Giants are thrilled to announce that three-time Stanley Cup champion Brent Seabrook has joined the team as an interim, volunteer assistant coach. He'll be on the bench with the team tonight in Kelowna.
