Reading, PA – The Reading Royals of the ECHL, affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League, today announced that Ryan Cruthers has joined the team as an assistant coach. Cruthers, who will assist Interim Head Coach Kirk MacDonald in all matters related to hockey operations, began his role with the team today.

“I’m excited to have Ryan join the Royals’ coaching staff,” said MacDonald. “Our fans are well familiar with his skill and competitive fire as a player, and I’m confident that he will bring his hockey knowledge and experience, as well as his positive energy, to our squad as we prepare for our post-season run. I want to express my sincere thanks to Ryan for taking the time from his busy schedule with his junior team to help the Royals pursue our goals of championship excellence.”
