Ken Hitchcock started playing hockey at a very young age. However, he quickly realized that his skill on the ice wasn’t what made him standout. It was his ability to encourage the other players on his team. He began his coaching career with various local teams in Edmonton. Eventually, he became the head coach of the Kamloops Blazers of the WHL. There, he coached the team to 4 consecutive division titles, 2 league titles, as well as being named the WHL Coach of the Year and the top coach in Canadian Major Junior Hockey. It was only a matter of time before he took his coaching skills to the mecca of hockey, the NHL.
After 3 years as an assistant coach for the Philadelphia Flyers, he joined the Dallas Stars. From 1993 to 1995, he worked as an assistant for the Stars. However, in January of 1996 he was offered the head coaching position. It didn’t take long for him to make a splash in the NHL, as he led the Stars to an impressive 51-19-12 record and winning the Stanley Cup during the 1998-99 season.
He has since occupied the head coach position for 4 other teams in the NHL, including the Philadelphia Flyers, Columbus Blue Jackets, St. Louis Blues, and the Edmonton Oilers. He has amassed 849 career wins, placing him 4th among all coaches in NHL history.
Ken’s coaching tenure has granted him plenty of experience with identifying and maximizing talent. Now, Ken finds joy in educating others on how they can maximize talent, both in a team setting and within themselves. His insights and findings offer life-changing advice whether you’re a hockey fan or not.
