Oilers Set Precedent with Front Office Hiring
The Edmonton Oilers have made a groundbreaking announcement for their front office. They've welcomed Dani Rylan Kearney, a former NCAA player and the founder of the NWHL, as a regional scout.
This step signifies a broader movement of women taking on pivotal roles in the NHL's front office. The league is progressively diversifying its workforce, with Kearney being a notable addition.
A Glimpse at Kearney's Stellar Credentials
During her time at Northeastern, Kearney accumulated 20 points in her 70 NCAA matches. She was instrumental in establishing the NWHL, transforming professional women's hockey and leading as its commissioner until 2020. Post-NWHL, Kearney ventured into executive consultation and played a significant role in expanding a Long Island youth girls hockey initiative.
Kearney is now set to channel her extensive hockey knowledge into scouting for the Oilers, aiming to assist them in securing the much-desired Stanley Cup.
