Sheffield Steelers' Steve Munn turns down coaching role

Ice hockey

Steve Munn has turned down the opportunity to be the next Sheffield Steelers coach.

The 32-year-old was offered the position of player/coach by owner Bob Phillips, but rejected it on Thursday.

Munn told BBC Radio Sheffield: "I'd hate for my first head coaching job to be over in 48 hours.

"There's too many question marks. I just hope that something happens quickly and something changes dramatically," he added.

The defenseman re-joined the Steelers in March having spent last season with Asia League side Tohoku Free Blades.
