Jersey Number: 83 Position: Forward Home: Holland, PA How I support my Hockey Habit:  Media Specialist     (i.e., Librarian)
"I started playing hockey when I was six months old, as the National Inquirer will attest. After a childhood as an international chess champion, I spent my teenage years skating for the Toronto Maple Leaves, the grammatically correct girls franchise. A brief stint as a Versace model made me realize that I was more than a pretty face so I signed with the Montreal Canadiens. Like many girls in those days, I had to disguise my gender and name, my days as Guy LaFleur began. During my NHL career, I won the Lady Byng and Con Smythe trophies and led my team to 6 consecutive Stanley Cup championships. Because of my dual citizenship, I played on both the Canadian and U.S. National women's Olympic teams, and now own two gold medals. Now I live the quiet life as a spokesathlete for Nike, Burger King and Buick and divide my time between homes in Telluride, Paris and Tuscany and a 14,000 sq. ft. pied-a-terre in New York City."
