Chicago Coach Gets New Deal
Jeremy Colliton, the head coach of the NHLs Chicago Blackhawks has agreed to 2year extension with the club
Chicago Blackhawks coach Jeremy Colliton has agreed to a two-year contract extension on the eve of his third season with the team.
Colliton is 62-58-17 since he replaced Joel Quenneville in November 2018, becoming the 38th coach in franchise history.
He guided Chicago into the post-season last year, winning a four-game series against Edmonton before being eliminated by Vegas.
Colliton's extension runs through the 2022-23 season.
The Blackhawks open this season on Colliton's 36th birthday on Wednesday at Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay.
