This International Women’s Day (Monday, March 8), the Petes will be streaming a virtual Q&A with some of hockey’s biggest stars. The show will air on the Petes Facebook page at 7:30 pm and on Periscope from the Petes Twitter page at 8:00 pm.

The lineup for Game On features Canadian Olympic gold medalist Natalie Spooner, former Canadian Women’s Hockey League (CWHL) player and member of the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association (PWHPA), Jessica Platt, and member of Canada’s Women’s National Team, Jill Saulnier

The Q&A will provide insight and highlight each woman’s journey throughout hockey, reveal the role models in their lives, and share their favourite moments of their prestigious careers to date.
