Here’s the latest I can summarize based on recent reporting:
- As of 2025, Anaheim Ducks coach Greg Cronin was fired after the 2024-25 season, ending his two-year tenure with the team. This set the stage for a coaching-search process heading into 2025-26.[5][8]
- Reports from early 2025 indicated the Ducks were conducting an extensive head coach search, with multiple candidates tied to interviews and strong speculation around notable names such as Joel Quenneville, Jay Woodcroft, and others in the coaching market. The team publicly stated they were early in the process and would interview several candidates.[1][9]
- In mid-2025, coverage noted coaching-staff changes under consideration, including potential additions to support a revamped approach (e.g., new assistants or tweaks to strategy) as part of revitalizing the organization after Cronin’s departure.[3]
If you’d like, I can pull the most recent, timestamped developments from current outlets and provide a concise, sourced update with a short list of candidates and any announced formal decisions. Would you like me to do that?[9][1]
