Kraken's Campbell Breaks Ice Ceiling


 People often view Seattle as a "cutting edge" town with trends in many different fields starting here.  The Seattle Kraken help boost that perception, as they have hired the first female coach in NHL history.  

Jessica Campbell is assistant coach for the team under new coach Dan Bylsma.   She was assistant for Bylsma at Seattle's affiliate in Coachella Valley in the American Hockey League. 

Campbell herself is a former Ice Hockey player, playing in women's leagues in Canada and Sweden.
