Marty possesses all the skills necessary to become an elite college hockey coach and help take our program to the next level. I am excited to welcome Marty to the Canisius hockey family.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A native of Bratislava, Slovakia, Hlinka joins Canisius after spending the past three seasons as an assistant coach with the Salzburg Red Bulls junior program, most recently working the club&#8217;s U18 squad during the 2018-19 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to his work as an assistant coach with Salzburg, Hlinka serves as a lead on-ice skills instructor with Synergy Hockey in St. Louis. He also spent 10 years as the lead on-ice skills instructor for the Pavel Datsyuk Hockey Camp in Yekaterinburg, Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Hlinka has also gained valuable coaching experience on the international stage, having worked as the lead on-ice skills instructor for both the Belarus and Poland U18 national teams.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am honored to be selected as an assistant coach here at Canisius,&#8221; Hlinka said. &#8220;Working with such a talented group of young men and coaches is a privilege I do not take lightly. I cannot wait to get started.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hlinka played collegiately at Augsburg, amassing 125 points (40 goals, 85 assists) in 85 games from 1995 to 1999. He was also a member of the football program at Augsburg, garnering All-American accolades as a kicker.<\/p>\n<p>Following his time at Augsburg, Hlinka embarked on a 15-year professional career in the AHL, UHL and Germany.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canisius announced Wednesday the hiring of Martin Hlinka as an assistant coach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":120,"featured_media":94376,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"coauthors":[901],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
