Dave Hakstol adding former UND captain Matt Greene to his staff at Arizona State
Key Points:
- Dave Hakstol is joining Arizona State as head coach, bringing former University of North Dakota captain Matt Greene onto his staff as an assistant coach.
- Greene, who played at UND from 2002-05 and won two Stanley Cups with the Los Angeles Kings, has been working in player development and coaching roles with the Kings since retiring in 2017.
- Arizona State is rebuilding its coaching staff following a serious incident during a military-style workout that left defenseman Matthew Mayich on life support, leading to head coach Greg Powers and associate head coach Alex Hicks being placed on leave.
- Hakstol and Greene will both be behind the bench for Arizona State’s upcoming series at UMass Lowell, with assistant coach Mike Corbett, who served as acting head coach earlier this season, not expected to be retained.
