Veteran goaltending coach and former AHL netminder Jeff Tokarski has been hired by the Carolina Hurricanes as their new goaltending scout. The move signals the NHL club’s commitment to strengthening its pipeline of young talent, especially after a recent surge in promising prospects within the organization’s minor‑league affiliates. Tokarski brings over a decade of experience evaluating and developing goalies at the AHL level, where he previously worked with teams such as the Rochester Americans and the Chicago Wolves. His appointment is expected to enhance the Hurricanes’ scouting network, giving the franchise a sharper eye on emerging netminders who could soon compete for a spot in Carolina’s crease.
