Brandon Reid (born March 9, 1981 in Kirkland , Québec ) is a former Canadian ice hockey player and current coach, who most recently was the head coach of the Krefeld Penguins in the German Ice Hockey League .

Career

player

Reid began his ice hockey career in 1997 in the Canadian junior league Ligue de hockey junior majeur du Québec with the Halifax Mooseheads . In his third season in Halifax , the right-shooter was his team's top scorer. In the 62 games that he played, the 1.77 m tall center scored 124 points and had plus / minus statistics of +30. As a result, Reid was selected during the NHL Entry Draft 2000 by the Vancouver Canucks in the seventh round in a total of 208th place. After another year in the LHJMQ, this time with the Foreurs de Val-d'Or , the attacker switched to the American Hockey League for the Manitoba Moose , the farm team of the Vancouver Canucks, in the 2001/02 season .

There the Canadian developed into one of the leading players and was in the Canucks squad for the first time during the 2002/03 season . In the end, Reid was used in seven games and came up with five scorer points. The following year he went mainly for the Manitoba Moose in the AHL and only played three games in the National Hockey League .

Finally, the tech-savvy striker moved to the German ice hockey league with the Hamburg Freezers during the summer break of 2004 , who provided him with a one-year contract. After the contract was not renewed at the end of the 2004/05 season , he was drawn to the Swiss National League A to the Rapperswil-Jona Lakers . After a successful season, Reid received an offer from his previous employer, the Vancouver Canucks. The attacker could not prevail again in the NHL and played mostly in the AHL for the Manitoba Moose.

In the end, a permanent engagement in the National Hockey League seemed unlikely and so the Canadian forced a move to Europe. After all, it was the people in charge of the DEG Metro Stars who transferred him to Düsseldorf for the 2007/08 season . Reid was able to convince there and scored the decisive 3-2 after 91:44 minutes in one of the longest games in DEL history between the Hannover Scorpions and the DEG Metro Stars in the third and final game of the play-off qualifying round. After the 2007/08 season, his contract was extended for another year.

In the 2008/09 season , the offensive player was able to reach the final of the German Championship with DEG , which was lost with 1: 3 wins against the Eisbären Berlin . Reid scored 21 points in 16 completed play-off games and was thus the top scorer. In addition, the jurors of the German Ice Hockey League recognized him as the most valuable player in the play-offs.

In 2010 he went to the Rapperswil-Jona Lakers in the Swiss National League A . In June 2012 he returned to the DEL to the Hamburg Freezers, where he did not receive a new contract in spring 2013. In June 2013 Reid was signed by HK ZSKA Moscow from the Continental Hockey League (KHL), but only made 26 appearances in the KHL in the 2013/14 season.

Trainer

Due to persistent injury problems, he ended his active professional career in the summer of 2014 and was head coach of Vojens IK, the second team of SønderjyskE Ishockey , in the 1st division in the 2015/16 season . At the end of May 2016, he was hired by the Danish first division club Aalborg Pirates as head coach. In his first year as a coach from Aalborg, he finished the points round in the Danish league as first in the table.

In the 2017/18 season, Reid Aalborg won the Danish championship and triumphed in the cup competition. At the beginning of May 2018 he was introduced as the new head coach of the Krefeld Penguins in the German Ice Hockey League. In mid-December 2019, Reid was fired in Krefeld after the team had won seven games and lost 19 in the previous course of the 2019/20 season.
