The Vernon Vipers have a new bench boss.

Mark Ferner’s term as the Snakes’ head coach and GM has ended with the organization hiring Jason McKee to take his place.

“We are excited to welcome Jason, along with his wife Care-Ann and daughters Brianna and Brynn to the Vipers,” executive vice-president Todd Miller said in a press release. “It is an exciting time for the Vipers organization and the addition of Jason McKee’s passion, leadership skills and winning tradition completely align with our vision for the future.”

The Vipers have extended an offer to Ferner to stay with the organization in an alternate role.

Spring camp starts for the Vipers this weekend, and the organization is finalizing hockey schools and fall camps.
