Hey there, time traveller!

Three-time Olympic gold medallist Jennifer Botterill of Winnipeg has announced her retirement from Canada’s national women’s hockey team.
Botterill is one of just four Canadian players to participate in all four Olympic women’s hockey tournaments. She earned gold medals at the 2002, 2006 and 2010 Olympic Games, which are among 16 total gold medals she won with Team Canada during her 14-year career. She also won five at the IIHF World Women’s Hockey Championship and seven at the 3 Nations/Four Nations Cup and the 2005 Torino Ice Tournament.
Botterill played 184 games for Team Canada and is third all-time behind Hayley Wickenheiser and Jayna Hefford. She is fifth on the all-time scoring list with 65 goals and 109 assists for 174 points.
Her last appearance with Team Canada was on Feb. 25, 2010 at the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver when she set up Marie-Philip Poulin for the gold medal-winning goal .
