Prior to joining the Tri-City staff, Gordon spent the 2014-15 season as an assistant coach and later as interim head coach at St. Scholastica in Duluth.

The forward helped Minnesota to back-to-back regular-season conference titles in 2006 and 2007 while the Maroon & Gold added a conference playoff title in 2007. Gordon was named the team’s Dr. V. George Nagobads Unsung Hero in 2006.

Following his college career, he played in 362 professional games with 380 points over six seasons before transitioning to coaching.
