O’Hearn served as the Arizona Coyotes’ assistant general manager for ten years before joining the organization in the spring of 2019.
Who will play that position for the team during the season is unknown.
The group also issued a statement regarding the alleged infractions committed by one of its members.
The team released a statement saying, “The Minnesota Wild takes its code of conduct seriously.” “We have taken the necessary action to address the issues brought to our attention and have just conducted two independent investigations into alleged violations of that code of conduct. The team won’t make any more comments.It happens one day after The Athletic revealed that Bill Guerin, general manager of the Wild, was the subject of an inquiry after allegations of verbal abuse.
The allegations and the parties involved were not made clear by the club.
All of this occurred within two weeks after Guerin, following a disastrous season debut, sacked assistant coach Bob Woods and head coach Dean Evason, appointing John Hynes and Patrick Dwyer in their stead. The squad has won six of the last eight games since then as they have begun to turn things around on the ice.
The team will play Vancouver on Saturday when it returns to action.
