The team announced that they had hired Dani Rylan Kearny today as a regional scout. Kearny is the first female scout in Oilers history.
Kearny is a former player, having played two seasons for Northeastern University in the NCAA. She also cofounded the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL) which has since merged into the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL). She is the latest in a series of women that have been hired by NHL clubs to front office roles.
