Historic moment for the #NHL! 🏒 Jessica Campbell will become the first woman to work on the bench of an NHL franchise after being hired by the Seattle Kraken as an assistant coach. With years of experience and a proven track record, Campbell’s addition to the Kraken’s coaching staff is a monumental step forward. Campbell began playing hockey as a child, playing with and against boys in her hometown of Rocanville, Saskatchewan, where girls hockey wasn’t even an option at the time. She went on to play at Cornell University, and professionally for Calgary and Malmo in Sweden. She was also part of the silver-medal winning Canada team at the 2015 IIHF Women’s World Championship.
