In 2014, due to a lack of institutional compliance, all wins and ties from 2007–08 through 2011–12 were forfeited and the program's lone NCAA appearance was vacated. [1]

He was the head coach for the Calgary Hitmen of the Western Hockey League in the 2017–18 season. [2]

He returned to college hockey as an assistant with the University of Denver Pioneers in 2018. [3]
