Canes Reinvent Behind the Scenes | Carolina Hurricanes News

The Carolina Hurricanes are revving up for the 2026-27 season with a major behind-the-scenes overhaul, reshaping their staff from training to scouting to communications. Veteran NHL trainer Donnie Fuller and massage therapist Yuji Katsuta join the athletic team, while RJ Enga and Gehrig Sarosy take on assistant coaching and video roles. Communications gets a boost with Mike Sundheim expanding into production/marketing, Madison White becoming primary media contact, and new hires like Sidney Binger and Trent Warren. Player development is also getting a shot in the arm with Cam Ward moving to goalie coaching, Dustin Tokarski joining as goalie scout, and Zach Ellenthal stepping into full-time pro scout duties. This comprehensive shakeup signals a serious commitment to building a stronger, smarter, more efficient organization — one that’s not just winning games, but winning the future.
