In a groundbreaking move for women's hockey, Manon Rheaume is set to become the first general manager of Detroit's Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) team. A trailblazing figure in her own right, Rheaume made history in 1992 when she became the first woman to play in an NHL game, suiting up for the Tampa Bay Lightning in a preseason contest. Now, she's poised to make another significant impact on the sport as she takes the reins of the new Detroit PWHL team, which is expected to launch in the near future. With her extensive experience in hockey and her commitment to empowering women in the sport, Rheaume is well-positioned to lead the team to success and help grow the popularity of women's hockey in the region.
