NEW YORK, December 29, 2019 – The American Hockey League announced today that Hartford Wolf Pack Head Coach Kris Knoblauch has been named the Head Coach of the Atlantic Division All-Stars at the 2020 AHL All-Star Classic, which takes place on January 26-27, 2020 in Ontario, California.

Knoblauch has guided Hartford to an 18-8-2-5 record in 33 games in his first season as the Wolf Pack’s Head Coach and his first season as a Head Coach in the professional ranks.
