Wallace confirmed as Panthers’ Head Coach for Elite Series

The Nottingham Panthers confirmed on Wednesday afternoon that Tim Wallace will resume his position as Head Coach of the team for the 2021 Elite Series.

Wallace was Player-Coach of the MK Lightning in 2018/19 before being appointed to the top job at the Motorpoint Arena in the summer of 2020. He led the Panthers to a 21-6-15-4 record in 46 games during 2019/20.

“It’s been tough for Tim not coaching this year, but he’s stayed loyal to the Panthers and really wanted to be a part of this,” said Panthers Director of Hockey Gui Doucet. “I think he did a good job for us last year, he’s really eager to get back to doing what he loves, and I couldn’t be happier to have him back on board.”
