Jessica Campbell is the first woman to get a coaching job in the North American professional ice hockey league NHL. The former assistant to former German national team coach Toni Söderholm has been appointed co-coach of the Seattle Kraken. This was announced by the NHL team of German national goalkeeper Philipp Grubauer. The Seattle-based organization is considered to be particularly progressive on environmental and social issues in the rather conservative sport of ice hockey.

The 32-year-old Canadian assisted Söderholm at the 2022 World Championship. She has also worked as an assistant coach with the Nuremberg Ice Tigers in the German Ice Hockey League.
