With a German passport
Villach is also talking about a champion coach
The search for a coach at ice hockey club VSV continues. It has now leaked out that the Adler have put out feelers for a championship coach: Tray Tuomie, who turned Ritten into Alps League champions.
Immediately after the season ended in the quarter-finals, it was clear that VSV would not be renewing the contract of coach Marcel Rodman (now in Zell am See). Since then, a meticulous search has been underway for the right man to take over the helm. According to insiders, Ritten's champion coach Tray Tuomie is among the final candidates.
Was Stewart's assistant
The 56-year-old American (with a German passport) spent ten years as an assistant or head coach in the German top league DEL. In Augsburg, he was assistant to former VSV crack Mike Stewart from 2016 to 2018 - and then succeeded him. And in the past season, Tuomie led the South Tyrolean club Ritten to the Alps Hockey League title - with a 4:0 sweep over Cortina in the final. Afterwards, he has already been to Villach in his "Rittner Buam" company car and has seen everything there.
Candidate from the ECHL
Among the other candidates for the head job in Villach is also said to be a coach from the North American East Coast Hockey League (ECHL).
