The four assistant coaches for the 2022 men’s hockey Olympic team all come with NCAA connections.<\/p>\n

John Hynes, David Quinn, Todd Reirden and Ryan Miller will serve as assistant coaches to head coach Mike Sullivan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’ve got a great coaching staff in place,\u201d said Stan Bowman, general manager of the 2022 U.S. Olympic hockey team, in a statement. \u201cIt’s a group that knows what it takes to be successful, and through their unique and varied backgrounds will help put our team in the best position to win the gold medal.”<\/p>\n

Hynes, head coach of the NHL\u2019s Nashville Predators, also spent time coaching at the college level, serving as an assistant coach at UMass Lowell in 2000-01 and at Wisconsin in 2002-03 after beginning his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Boston University.<\/p>\n

As a player, Hynes played four seasons (1993-97) at BU where he competed in four straight NCAA Frozen Fours, winning the NCAA title in 1995.<\/p>\n

Quinn served as the head coach for his alma mater, Boston University, from 2013 to 2018 and guided the Terriers to four NCAA tournament appearances, two Hockey East regular-season titles and two Hockey East tournament championships.<\/p>\n

He also spent five seasons (2004-09) as the associate head coach at BU, where he helped the Terriers to the NCAA national title in 2009. Quinn\u2019s other collegiate coaching positions have been at Northeastern (1995-96) and Omaha (1996-2002).<\/p>\n

Quinn was an All-Hockey East and All-New England defenseman at Boston University and served as co-captain during his senior year in 1987-88.<\/p>\n

Reirden, currently an assistant coach with the NHL\u2019s Pittsburgh Penguins, was an assistant coach in 2007-08 for his alma mater, Bowling Green, where he played from 1990 to 1994.<\/p>\n

Miller retired from a distinguished 18-year NHL career in 2021, one that included stops with four teams (Buffalo, St. Louis, Vancouver, Anaheim) and 391 regular-season wins, the most for a U.S.-born netminder in NHL history.<\/p>\n

Miller, who earned the NHL’s Vezina Trophy in 2010, recorded a career 391-289-88 regular-season record with a 2.64 GAA and .914 save percentage. He also competed in 57 playoff games with a 2.52 goals against average and .913 save percentage.<\/p>\n

His international career was highlighted by leading the U.S. to the gold-medal game of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, and ultimately a silver-medal finish after an overtime loss to Canada in the final game of the Olympic tournament. Miller, who recorded a 1.35 GAA and .946 save percentage, earned MVP honors at the games.<\/p>\n

He also had a notable collegiate career at Michigan State where he won the Hobey Baker Memorial Award in 2001. Miller today still holds the NCAA record for career shutouts with 26.<\/p>\n

Sullivan, the current head coach in Pittsburgh, played at BU from 1986 to 1990.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
