*y/ns pov*
I was walking into the capitals locker room full of excitement, I was going to make my NHL debut with my childhood team.

Peter Laviolette the head coach was currently showing me my locker and what line I was going to be on, it was the fourth line with Garnet Hathaway and Nic Dowd.

He said "the team should be in shortly but welcome to the team y/l/n." I said "thanks coach."

I saw the players come in and the coach said "oh well here they are, listen up team we have a be member. This is y/n, yes she's a woman but please be nice."

Number 8 came over and held his hand out, he said "Alexander Ovechkin, I'm the captain of the team, you have any problem come to me."

I said "nice to meet you, I'm y/n y/l/n your new teammate." He smiled and another person came over to us, he said "I'm Evgeny Kuznetsov but you can call me Kuzy, nice to meet you y/n."

I shook his hand and met the rest of the team, I thought "okay this isn't so bad." I headed home and I heard a knock on my door, I answered it and it was two guys with dark brown hair and brown eyes.

I said "hi, may I ask who you are?" They said "we're Dowd and Hathaway, your line mates. We came to ask if you wanted to hang out."

I said "oh yeah, sorry about that it's hard to remember 22 names and stuff." Dowd said "no I totally get it, I was the same way when I joined the team." We both laughed and headed to a bar.

We all chatted and had a few drinks, I decided not to have any because I didn't want to be hungover before our game.

I took those two home and headed back to my apartment. I got a call from my mom and answered it, she said "hey honey! How did the meeting go?"

I said "it went great! The team likes me and I already hung out with two of them, they're names are Nic and Garnet. They are so sweet."

She said "that's great to hear y/n, well I know that you have practice in the morning so I'll let you go, I already miss you baby."

I said "I miss you too mama, but I'll visit whenever I can goodbye and goodnight." She said "goodnight sweetheart I love you." I said "love you too mama."

I hung up and said "I can't wait to visit her." I grew up in Montreal, my whole family except for my mom were Canadiens fans.

My mom grew up in Washington D.C, I often stayed with her on weekends and that's what made me fall in love with capitals hockey.

I grew up idolizing Alex ovechkin and Nick Backstrom, but now I'm on a team with both of them, I've never been more excited to play.

I woke up the next morning and headed to capital one arena for practice, I practiced with Dowd and Hathaway and also got to meet Tom Wilson. I was informed that he was a ladies man.

After practice I headed to the locker room and felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around and said "hi Ovi, what are you doing?" He said "I came to ask you how you're feeling for tonight."

I said "I'm so excited but super nervous, I think I'll do well." He smiled and said "cool, we'll see you tonight ya?" I smiled and he left the locker room.

I got myself ready for the game and headed to the ice. I took my solo lap around the ice and the rest of the team came out. My debut game went really well, my mom was in the stands and saw me score my first goal.

After Post game ended, I headed back to my apartment, I took a shower and ended up falling asleep seeing what was coming up next in my future for the NHL.

The next morning we had to catch a plane to get to New York for our game against the Islanders, I was super nervous but excited. I had gotten to know Hathaway and Dowd better, along with TJ Oshie.

They all seemed very friendly, Hathaway was the only one who knew that I had anxiety. He normally would comfort me through that when it happens.

It was my second game of the year and this one was a lot different from the first one, I got into a fight because someone hit Oshie. Ovechkin and Wilson had to pull me back, they said "hey hey hey, calm down okay."

I headed to the penalty box still chirping at Matt Martin. I grabbed a towel and wiped the sweat off my face, Matt was still chirping. I said "Chirping isn't gonna make you look good sweetie."

He shut his mouth and Hathaway smiled at me, I spent five minutes in the box.

When I came out I had a break away and ended up scoring a goal, OVI tapped my helmet and we skated down the bench high fiving the others.

Post game came and I ended up getting the rope and a puck with my first game winning goal. I said "I couldn't of done this without y'all's support. Thank you for letting me apart of this team."

They handed me a grip strength thing and I ended up getting 95 on that. I headed to my hotel and they said "hey rookie wanna go to the bar with us?"

I said "I can't I have to get ready for tomorrow when we leave, I'll go when we get back to Washington."

The frowned and said "oh okay then, see you on the bus tomorrow." I waved and headed to the bathroom to shower, after that I got into bed and fell asleep. This was the best night of my life.
