The Anaheim Jr. Ducks have announced their 2021-22 Tier II coaching lineup.

The group includes several accomplished, longtime coaches. Alex Vasilevsky, a 1993 St. Louis Blues draft choice who played seven seasons of pro hockey after averaging more than a point per game during his Western Hockey League career, will coach at the 18U team. That age level has qualified for the USA Hockey Youth Nationals six times since 2013.

Jeff Noviello, a veteran Jr. Ducks and Anaheim Ducks High School Hockey League coach, again will coach the 16Us, an age level he has guided to Nationals twice (2018-19).

They are joined by former Anaheim Ducks player and Stanley Cup champion Todd Marchant (12U AA-1) and Sandy Gasseau (14U AA-2). Gasseau has led several AAA and AA teams to Nationals berths and also developed dozens of players who have played college and professional hockey.

They are joined by Paul Beutner (16U AA-2) and Sean Birkle (12U AA-2).
