Sarnia Sting General Manager, Nick Sinclair is proud to announce that Brad Staubitz has joined the Hockey Club as a Strength & Conditioning Coach.

Staubitz recently retired from professional hockey after spending the 2014-15 season with EV Landshut in Germany. Originally drafted by the Soo Greyhounds in 2000, Staubitz spent 4 seasons in the OHL (3.5 in SSM & .5 in OTT), playing in a total of 236 regular season games.

Despite not being selected in the NHL Draft, Staubitz was signed by the Cleveland Barons (AHL) as a free agent following his OHL career. He spent 3 years in the AHL before getting an opportunity with the San Jose Sharks in 2008.

Over the course of 5 seasons, Staubitz played in a total of 230 NHL games with the Sharks, Wild, Canadiens, and Ducks.

GM Nick Sinclair comments, "As a group, we're very excited about today's announcement, and what Brad brings to the table for our organization. He's a guy who's had to work harder than most to accomplish what he has, and we feel that this is something our players can certainly learn from. He's a guy who's played over 200 games in our league, and knows the preparation it takes to be successful at this level and beyond."

Staubitz, who was originally born in Edmonton, Alberta, spent the majority of his childhood here in Sarnia. He is a Lambton Jr. Sting and Wallaceburg Lakers Alumnus.
