That was such an important time for us, as a team. It was our second gold medal in a row, following Salt Lake City, and really established ourselves as the best team in the world.

The one thing I'd always wanted to do in my career is push myself out of my comfort zone - I think I'm really comfortable with being uncomfortable. So that's why I played pro men's hockey, that's why I played softball and hockey at the same time, that's why I'm not afraid to speak up - that's just who I am.

Am I worried? Sure, I'm worried. When it comes to the Olympics, it can't be a predictable finish.

I hear they had our flag on their dressing room floor. I wonder if they'd like us to sign it?

To represent the best of Canada is such an honour, it's chilling. There is so much excitement.

People would say, 'Girls don't play hockey. Girls don't skate.' I would say, 'Watch this.'

Honestly, I believe that you are only as good as your last game. And so there were games and tournaments and days when I was like, "I'm probably the best player in the world." And there were some where I'm like, "Oh god, I'm terrible." I think that pushed me all the time.
