The Kelowna Rockets are looking for a new head coach after the team announced Monday Brad Ralph will not return for a second season.
Ralph recorded a 48-20-4-0 season as bench boss, with the Kelowna club making it to WHL Western Conference final before being eliminated from the playoffs.
“I’m appreciative of the opportunity given to me by the Rockets this past season,” said Ralph.
“I’m very proud of the success which the club enjoyed in reaching the Western Conference finals. I wish the club and its players the best of success in the future.”
“I want to take this opportunity to thank Brad and his family for their time with us and I wish him all the best in his future hockey endeavours,” said Rockets general manager Bruce Hamilton.
Hamilton said the search for a new coach is now underway.
