The Sharks announced this morning that they have promoted assistant coach Ryan Warsofsky to become their next head coach and 11th head coach in franchise history.
Warsofsky will be entering his third season with the Sharks, where his previous role consisted of him overseeing the team's defense and penalty kill. For much of this offseason until today, the Sharks' head coaching vacancy was narrowed down to Warsofsky and former Sharks forward and current head coach of the AHL's Ontario Reign Marco Sturm. As for the Sharks' previous head coach David Quinn, he was recently named an assistant coach for the Pittsburgh Penguins on Mike Sullivan's coaching staff.
Overall, this is an excellent decision by the Sharks to promote from within to fill their head coaching vacancy. Warsofsky has definitely earned this promotion, as he has worked well with the Sharks' young players so far and has had prior experience as a head coach for the AHL's Chicago Wolves, leading them to the best record in the AHL and a Calder Cup victory. I continue to remain optimistic that this Sharks team can bounce back next season and further improve in seasons to come, and this is another significant reason why.
