Associate head coach Patrick McCadden was named the 10th head coach in team history on Wednesday. The announcement comes 13 days after former head coach Mike Leone departed for the same role with the American Hockey League’s Rochester Americans.

McCadden won a Clark Cup in 2010 as a player under current Tampa Bay Lightning head coach Jon Cooper, before serving on the coaching staff for Lawrence University for five seasons.
