Assistant Coaching News

Kate Crandall of the Colorado Springs Gazette is reporting that Colorado College assistant coach Norm Bazin is leaving Colorado College to become the head coach at Division III Hamilton College.

Bazin has been with Colorado College since 2000. Bazin was seriously injured an auto accident in 2003 that forced him to miss nearly a year and a half of coaching.

Meanwhile, Alaska-Anchorage has hired former UAA standout Regg Simon as an assistant coach. Simon was head coach of the USHL's Des Moines Buccaneers last season.

I thought John Rose was the new assistant for Alaska?

Doesn't matter who is coaching at CC------they still have a ton of talent in that program and will be a team to be reckoned with.

Yes, CC is always great until that pesky month of March rolls around. Lips are firmly placed around the tailpipe from there on in...

Just remember, it's CC...Strong regular season that ends with a top 3 finish, but tank it when the games count.

John Rose is the assistant for the Nanooks not the Seawolves. Get your Alaskan schools straight.


I think that Reg will be a good assistant up here. Hopefully he can help us land players from the USHL that are a better quality than the junior B leagues of Canada so that we will be more competitive. I don't see a huge leap in the standing and moving forward with the UAA program until we can get those better recruits. I think that Dave has done a great job and that a lot of the guys who have come up here are really good but you can only do so much from with Canadians. You need that top end talent to make it in the WCHA and right now the Seawolves are doing what they can to build a solid but unspectacular team like it would take to be very successful. Reg hopefully can help that problem.

Rose was the assistant @ UAF not UAA.
