Interesting move. Krog doesn’t have much in the way of professional coaching experience at all, he’s primarily been the coach of BWC teams and a bit in Simon Fraser but he had a lot of professional experience as a player both in North America and overseas. He’s also a BC native from Fernie and an ex-Canuck having played 4 games in 2008-09 where he was notably a teammate of Ryan Johnson and obviously the Sedins.

Former Canuck legend BC boy Jason Krog? Goal-scorer against Edmonton? Player of 4 games?
Love that the Canucks somehow find former players to join the organization no matter how obscure lol

Still remember he was an all-star in Manitoba Moose. Was great for the prospects, but never able to make the big show. Hopefully he can guide our guys

Jason Krog was an absolute *beast* at the AHL level for a time. He won the scoring title in 2006 by 24 points.
Unfortunately he could never quite put it together at the NHL level. One of those classic âway too good for the AHL, not quite good enough for the NHLâ guys.
He was also victim of the waiver and re-entry waiver rules in effect for a lot of his peak years, where teams were reluctant to call up experienced AHL stars.

Get Darren Haydar too. Perennial AHL all stars. Didnât they try Krog with the Sedins for a game. Around the time Shirokov also slotted in that spot

This guy is on my roster in NHL 2k7… he was super fast and speedy and good on face offs. That was about it. Let’s see how he is as a coach?
