No, not that one: Edmonton Oilers name Gretzky assistant general manager
Kelly Buchberger named vice-president of player development
The Edmonton Oilers have named Keith Gretzky as the club's new assistant general manager.
Gretzky, 49, a younger brother of Oilers legend Wayne Gretzky, has spent the last five years with the Boston Bruins, most recently as director of amateur scouting.
Before joining the Bruins, he worked in scouting with the Phoenix Coyotes, now known as the Arizona Coyotes.
Gretzky's appointment was one of several announced Tuesday in a shakeup of the Oilers hockey operations staff.
