McBRIDE TO BE BEHIND THE BENCH FOR THE COLTS

July 6th, 2017 

Cornwall – Former Colts star Brock McBride is returning to coach the Jr A team for the 2017-18 CCHL season.

McBride is joining the Colts as an associate coach along with current bench boss Ian MacInnis.

“As a player, Brock understood the 200 foot game,” said MacInnis. “His lengthy pro career showed him the finer points of the game and now he can pass that knowledge on to the next generation.”

McBride joins the Colts after a 9 year pro career with stops in the American Hockey League, the East Coast Hockey League as well as the EIHL and the pro loop in Austria.

McBride combined grit with a scoring touch to amass 113 goals, 191 assists for 304 points and 615 penalty minutes in 391 games as a pro.

Prior to that, McBride spent four years playing for St. Lawrence University in the ECAC.

In McBride’s 3 plus years with the Colts he scored 50 goals, 81 assists for 131 points in 166 games.

Next on the Colts calendar is the 2nd Annual Cornwall Colts Alumni Golf Fun Day at Summerheights in support of the Colts Scholarship Fund on Wednesday, July 12th (11am shotgun start).
