NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — The New Jersey Devils have named their first female assistant general manager, making Kate Madigan the sixth woman to hold the title in the NHL. General Manager Tom Fitzgerald announced the promotion. The 30-year-old Madigan had been serving as the team’s executive director of hockey management/operations. In the last few weeks, Dr. Hayley Wickenheiser was hired as an assistant GM in Toronto and Meghan Hunter was promoted in Chicago. Emilie Castonguay and Cammi Granato are assistant GMs in Vancouver. Angela Gorgone became the NHL’s first woman assistant GM in 1996 when she was hired in Anaheim.
