Färjestad nära treårskontrakt med tränaren Cam Abbott

Färjestad BK är enligt rapporter nära att säkra ett långtidskontrakt med tränaren Cam Abbott. Avtalet följer på hans interimsanställning och lagets förbättrade prestationer. Endast mindre detaljer återstår innan ett treårskontrakt kan slutföras.

Cam Abbott anställdes av Färjestad BK för resten av säsongen efter att klubben skilts åt med Jörgen Jönsson. Detta kom efter att Abbott sparkats från sin position hos Chicago Wolves, AHL-filen till Carolina Hurricanes. Under Abbotts ledning förbättrade sig Färjestad under grundserien och slutade femma i tabellen, vilket positionerade dem som ett av de hetaste lagen inför slutspelet, enligt rapporter från VF (Värmlands Folkblad). VF uppger att parterna i princip är överens om ett långtidskontrakt, med endast detaljer kvar. Ett treårskontrakt sägs ligga på bordet. Nyheten publicerades igår klockan 13:55 på HockeyNews.se.
