COACHES AND STAFF
Head Coach
Bryan Rosenoff grew up playing youth hockey in the Portland Metro area and played college hockey at Portland State University. He coached hockey in Oregon and Montana at the Bantam, High School, and Junior A levels. “Rosie” as he is affectionately known, previously coached with Sherwood Ice Arena before serving as a Special Missions Aviator in the U.S. Air Force (2014-2020). As part of his reintegration to civilian life, Pacific Edge and Sherwood Ice Arena have graciously brought him back to be part of the organization. He believes in developing the four physical aspects of hockey (skating, passing, shooting, and stick-handling) and the four mental aspects of hockey (attitude, effort, knowledge, and “hockey sense”). Lastly, also assisting with our Learn-To-Skate and Learn-To-Play-Hockey programs, Rosie is excited and committed to growing youth hockey in the Portland Metro Area. You will rarely find him without a cup of coffee or in search of one.
