According to a report from Seattle Kraken insider Alison Lukan, the team is set to welcome their AHL affiliate Coachella Firebirds' coaching staff this evening when they host the Calgary Flames for some pre-season action.

Campbell is a well respected coach with a solid track record of success. In her first season with the AHL's Firebirds she helped the team to a Calder Cup Final.

Here's hoping she gets a full-time NHL gig in due time.
