Of all the players here, she might have the best chance of being here in 2010 or 2014 because of what the game means to her. |
One night in late spring nearing dusk we walked out our front door to hear the chirping, squeaking sound of bats. At first we thought they were coming from our neighbor's house, until we walked around the side of our own house, to find bats squeezing out a tiny crack in our roof. |
She had size and strength beyond her years. But I remember being at the training center in Finland, assisting her dialing home so she could talk to her parents. |
She has not had the easiest time staying on the straight and narrow. When you have a lot of talent, you might take things for granted. |
She looked to be in top form. She looked like she was back to where Pam Dreyer should be on the depth chart. |
She's one of those show-stopper-type players. There are times in a game where she has the ability to do something like that. I'm glad she's on our team. |
That's as tough as it gets. She just missed out. Talk about resilient. I've probably had to cut her more times than any player I've been around, and she just keeps coming back. |
That's the million-dollar question we would all like answered, |
The calls are always tough. We had the whole fall season to kind of figure this thing out. You want to get everybody healthy when it gets down that close so they can all show you what their value is.

The core is pretty much intact from the world championship team. We think we have players of equal or greater ability. We still have a lot of experience. Their hockey knowledge is solid because of their backgrounds. |

The introduction of the only non-stop flights between Fort McMurray and Toronto links northern Alberta to Air Canada's largest hub giving direct access to our worldwide network. |
The players named themselves. They stepped forward with the way they played. I think we'll start to take on a personality now. |
The young players coming up in our team are really remarkable. That's one thing I hope people will remember about this year for this team: That we gave several young players a chance to take ownership and assert their place for the United States. ... I realize everybody has an opinion, and a lot of those opinions favored Cammi. But that's part of my job. |
