Coffee In The Park with Jennifer and Cam
A Coffee with Brooklyn Rasmussen, Arena Technician (Engineering/Ice Ops) at OEG Sports & Entertainment!
Grab a coffee and settle in for a fascinating look behind the scenes of professional hockey with Brooklyn Rasmussen, an Arena Technician at OEG Sports & Entertainment.
As the first woman to drive the Zamboni for the Oilers—and one of only about five in the entire NHL—Brooklyn’s journey took her from power plants in BC to the high-stakes environment of Rogers Place. She shares the thrill of moving up from the "minors" to the NHL, where every turn is captured by cameras and the ice quality is scrutinized by the world's best players.
It isn't just a slow cruise around the rink; it’s a high-precision science involving temperature, humidity, and a massive blade. Brooklyn deconstructs common myths—like how the steering wheel actually controls the blade depth—and explains the intense 18-minute intermission sprint required to maintain Edmonton’s #2 NHL ranking for ice quality. From grueling late-night shifts that end at 2:30 AM to the incredible logistics of converting a hockey rink into a concert stage in just a few hours, she gives us a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the grit and expertise required to keep the arena running.
Please keep in mind that we experienced some technical difficulties during the recording; while Jennifer might sound like she is speaking from the other side of the rink, we promise she was right there for the whole conversation.
