Sheldon Keefe set to steal coach Jeremy Colliton from the Canucks organization

Since being hired by the New Jersey Devils, Sheldon Keefe has been looking for coaches to join him behind the bench as assistants. He is reportedly targeting current Abbotsford Canucks head coach Jeremy Colliton as one of his assistants.

Colliton has previously worked as the head coach of the Chicago Blackhawks where he coached for three years exactly. For the past two years, he has been the head coach of the Abbotsford Canucks in the AHL and has coached them to the playoffs in both of his years there.

Colliton has no experience as an NHL assistant coach having been a head coach for the majority of his coaching career.

We will now wait and see if Keefe and the Devils can pry Colliton away from the Canucks organization or if he will continue to coach at the AHL level.
