It was always so nice to step away from figure skating and school with hockey. To this day I'm still a huge fan.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I really did love hockey. It was one of my favorite things to do.
But inside of me I knew that the Olympics were still there. I was still young enough. I knew that once I transitioned out of hockey, it would be really hard to go back.
I still love hockey. It's just I'm at a different stage of my life and I think I'm just ready to grow in other ways outside of just being a hockey player.
I liked hockey, and I still like hockey.
I'm excited to watch slope style and halfpipe. And then, of course, when my events are done, I get to go to hockey, which is always entertaining. I also like figure skating. I think every girl grew up watching figure skating.
Hockey is my favorite because I'm from Michigan. I used to figure-skate and root for the Red Wings.
I really like figure skating.
It is so important to me to have my time away from hockey. Obviously, hockey is my passion; I love it. But definitely for me, time away from the rink and time when my mind isn't thinking about hockey is important.
I love figure skating. It's what I'm good at.
I'm leaving the game of hockey with nothing but great memories.
