Fernie native Jason Krog will be joining Vancouver Canucks head coach Manny Malhotra’s coaching staff for the upcoming season.
The team has finalized its coaching staff for the 2026/27 season, following Malhotra’s promotion in June.
Krog was named assistant coach alongside Ryan Mougenel and Jordan Smith.
“Finalizing our coaching staff is another important step for our organization,” said GM Ryan Johnson.
“When we started this process with Manny, we wanted to find quality people first and foremost, who are good teachers and have intelligent hockey minds. We have assembled a group that can help us build a solid foundation, connect with both our veterans and younger players, and put in place the system and style of play that Manny wants to see on the ice. We are excited to welcome Ryan, Jordan and Andrew to Vancouver, and I am very happy to see Jason get a much-deserved promotion.”
Krog has been with the organization for the past two years serving as a skills and skating coach with both the Vancouver and Abbotsford Canucks.
