McLaughlin rejoined Hockey Canada in September 2018 as vice president of operations and was promoted to chief operating officer in February 2023, before adding the title of executive vice president of strategy later that year.

He was previously the organization’s director of marketing services and events from 1999 until 2001.

“Pat has made so many significant contributions to Hockey Canada and hockey in Canada throughout his time with our organization, but in particular it’s important to recognize the leadership he demonstrated to help guide Hockey Canada through an extremely challenging time in late 2022 and early 2023,” Hockey Canada president and chief executive officer Katherine Henderson said in the release.

“While we will miss working with him, we are excited for this new opportunity for him and his family.”
