Colgate has announced Chris Nell as the men’s hockey team’s newest assistant coach and director of hockey operations.<\/p>\n

Nell will serve as the Raiders’ goalie coach.<\/p>\n

“Chris has rapidly ascended through the goalie coaching ranks, and we are so excited to have him join our staff,” Colgate head coach Mike Harder said in a statement. “His ability to teach the position, think through the game, and push our student-athletes to get better every day will be an enormous asset to our Colgate hockey community. His passion is both evident and contagious.”<\/p>\n

Nell arrives in Hamilton after serving as the assistant\/goalie coach with the USHL’s Green Bay Gamblers in 2023-24.<\/p>\n

He got his start in collegiate coaching at Marian, where he spent the last two years as the goalie coach for both the men’s and women’s programs.<\/p>\n

Nell played professional hockey from 2017 to 2022. He spent 110 games between the pipes in the ECHL, posting a 3.33 goals-against average and a .896 save percentage. Nell also recorded a 3.18 GAA and a .893 save percentage in 31 AHL games.<\/p>\n

He played college hockey at Bowling Green. As a sophomore, Nell earned first team all-WCHA honors after recording one of the best seasons in program history. He set the Bowling Green record in goals-against average (1.91) and save percentage (.930) while posting an 18-11-6 record.<\/p>\n

As a junior, Nell totaled 807 saves and logged a 2.15 goals-against average and a .916 save percentage. He finished atop the Bowling Green record book in career shutouts (11), career save percentage (.922), and career GAA (2.07).<\/p>\n

Nell graduated from Wisconsin-Green Bay in 2022 with a BA in organizational leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
