Paul Jerrard will serve as an assistant coach with the Dallas Stars. "We are very excited to name Paul Jerrard to our coaching staff," said Nieuwendyk. "He has great history with our organization, as well as with Glen Gulutzan while they were both coaching at our AHL franchise in Cedar Park. Paul's professionalism and work ethic will rub off on this organization and our players. He will help the Dallas Stars take the next step in getting back to the playoffs." Gulutzan was recently appointed as the Stars' head coach and it looks like he's going to start his NHL coaching career with someone he's familiar with on his staff.
