A sparkling feature on exactly how good Danielle Goyette was as a player and the impact she has had on women’s hockey both as a player and a coach has not yet crossed our Google Alerts, so we don’t have an Article of the Week. But the election of the fifth women’s hockey player to the Hockey Hall of Fame is definitely worth talking about.
At the international level, Danielle Goyette currently ranks as the fourth-highest scorer in Canadian Women’s National Team history. 219 points in 171 games. Three Olympic medals. Eight World Championship golds. She was the flag bearer for Canada in the opening ceremonies for her final Olympics at Turin in 2006.
