Detroit Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill will be making a repeat appearance at the World Championship, but this time it will be as an assistant.
USA Hockey named Blashill as part of head coach David Quinn's staff at the May 13-29 event in Tampere and Helsinki, Finland. Blashill was head coach of the men's team in 2017, 2018 and 2019, winning bronze in 2018. Blashill coached the U.S. to a 19-7 mark in those three World Championships, and his 19 wins are the most career victories for a head coach of the U.S. Men’s National Team in the IIHF Men’s World Championship.
