Dave Rogalski is a professional goaltending coach hired by the New Jersey Devils. Rogalski was with the St. Louis Blues in 2018-2019 when they would begin January as the worst team in the NHL, later going on to win the Stanley Cup that same season under the steady performance of goaltender Jordan Binnington.
Dave Rogalski Career Achievements
In 2018-2019, the St. Louis Blues were the worst team in the NHL at the beginning of January. As we all know, they would go on to right the ship, winning the Stanley Cup that same season. This was in large part due to tremendous goaltending from Jordan Binnington. Binnington started that season in the AHL, actually having been loaned to another team at one point during the year.
Rogalski at that time served as the goaltending development coach with the St. Louis Blues, working with Binnington (among others).
