The 53-year-old native of Castlegar, BC, will replace Jacques Martin, who finished the season as the Senators’ interim head coach after D.J. Smith was fired in December.
Green took the 2022-23 season off after being fired by the Canucks midway through the 2021-22 season. He was hired to be Lindy Ruff’s assistant before last season but took over head coaching duties when Ruff was fired in March.
