- The AHL’s Coachella Valley Firebirds have hired Vince Stalletti as their goaltending coach, per a team release. Stalletti spent the last five seasons in the NCAA as the goaltending coach at the University of Connecticut. Under his tutelage last season, goaltender Callum Tung (now in the New York Rangers system) posted a school-record .933 save percentage and helped lead the program to its first-ever NCAA Tournament. Stalletti replaces Colin Zulianello, who was promoted to be the Seattle Kraken’s goaltending coach under new head coach Lane Lambert.
