From a personal standpoint, this season was a super success for Louise St. Martin, who may be looking at her first All-Star appearance. In the regular season, she finished sixth amongst defenders in scoring, while also sitting at second on the Blizzard in ice time (just pipped by Luke Laraque, mostly because she generally does not kill penalties). She also cut down on penalty minutes significantly, produced more at full strength, continued to take good care of the puck with just 14 giveaways all season, created more turnovers and transition opportunities for her team through giveaways, and even blocked more shots. From a team standpoint, going out in the first round is a bit of a minor step back, but as a wise Greek philosopher named Giannis once said, it's not a failure, it is a step to success. We're hitting the start of the window soon, and I fully believe in this group to do some serious damage soon.
