One of the more widely discussed changes in the Carolina Hurricanes’ general staff this summer has been the departure of longtime head athletic Trainer Pete Friesen, whose position is now filled by Doug Bennett, who previously worked as the Canes’ assistant athletic trainer. The Hurricanes have also brought up Brian Maddox as assistant athletic trainer. Maddox previously served as the head athletic trainer for the Hurricanes’ affiliate team(s) since 2005. And after joining the staff as a full-time strength coach last summer following three years of part-time contributions, Bill Burniston was promoted to head strength and conditioning coach.
