The NHLPA is making a massive leadership change in the form of a new Executive Director. According to Frank Seravalli, former Boston Mayor and current U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh will be the new Executive Director of the NHLPA.
Walsh is born and raised in Boston and was the city's 54th mayor. Walsh is expected to resign from his Secretary of Labor position shortly after President Biden's State of The Union address. This move requires a vote from the board, but is expected to be voted in unanimously.
