Although the Brampton Thunder didn't make the Clarkson Cup final, Friday's CWHL Awards Gala offered the team a chance to look back their accomplishments this season. In the span of a year, the Thunder went from bottom-feeders to a team with a real shot of winning the Cup, something that even the players didn't expect.
"To be honest, we didn't expect the season that we did this year, not at all. I mean, coming off a season last year we were just like, let's just improve, let's start winning some games. That was our motto: let's win some games," said defender Laura Fortino.
