. .. her dream come true: " I'm more than grateful to be part of something big. I want to enjoy it to the full.

. .. the battle for the "Leiberl" in the PWHL: " The pace and the intensity were enormous. I've never felt such pressure before. It makes me proud that I was able to prove that I can keep up with the best.

. .. life in Canada: The team has given me a great welcome and I'm growing a little more every day. Ottawa is a manageable city with beautiful spots. At the moment I'm living the typical Canadian winter: Snow, snow and more snow.
