Scott Ford (born December 24, 1979) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player. He is currently an assistant coach with the Columbus Blue Jackets of the National Hockey League.

Playing career

[edit]

Undrafted, Ford played for the Milwaukee Admirals, Bridgeport Sound Tigers, Brown Bears, Cleveland Barons, Dayton Bombers, Fresno Falcons, Providence Bruins, Trenton Titans, Utah Grizzlies, and Peoria Rivermen.

During the 2012–13 season, whilst with the Peoria Rivermen, Ford was traded by the St. Louis Blues to the Nashville Predators to mark a return to the Milwaukee Admirals in exchange for Jani Lajunen on February 19, 2013.[1]

A free agent midway into the 2014–15 season, Ford belatedly signed an ECHL contract with the South Carolina Stingrays on December 6, 2014.[2] It marked a return to the ECHL for the first time since 2007.

On September 8, 2015, it was announced that Ford would join the Milwaukee Admirals as an assistant coach for the 2015–16 season.[3]
