"Let's make a deal. If you can beat me in a game of pond hockey, then I'll leave the rink all to you." He smirked. "What do you get if you win?" She asked, waiting for the catch. "A kiss."

"How can someone possibly smile that big?" "Because I know your the one behind the camera." [Mitch Marner] [Toronto Maple Leafs] mitchymarns 2017

Two kids travel to Chicago to continue their paths. One 23 year old travels from Russia to make his mark in the NHL. The other is 22 from Southern Illinois who looks to help those around her. She helps him live up to his potential and he helps her see what everyone else sees in her. Together they take not only the Blackhawks but the city of Chicago by storm. This is a story of not only finding love but finding yourself.

"It was because I fell in love with you and I was scared." "How can you be scared of falling in love? Especially when I gave you everything I had an all you did was throw it away. You never cared, did you?" ~ The stereotype for the offspring of a hockey legend is that they get everything handed to them. With Madison Gretzky it is quite the opposite. Not only is she the middle daughter of "The Great One" Wayne Gretzky, former captain of the Edmonton Oilers, but she's also carving her own path in her hockey career. With her being a girl it makes everything ten times harder, but they always say you'll find a way to make something happen, right? Through her ups and downs of fighting through the tears and the heartache Madison meets Connor McDavid who is suffering through his own personal issues. The two don't exactly "click" and it certainly wasn't love at first sight. Although the two argue constantly and often chirp every now and then, the hatred quickly begins to fade.

[Now free to read!] Scott Wilson isn't used to being corrected, and he definitely didn't expect to get his biggest dose of criticism by his coach's daughter - Elle Monroe. ***** When Scott Wilson is drafted to try out for the Marlies hockey team, it's easily the best day of his life. He's cocky and for good reason. He's spent his entire life being told that he's a hockey prodigy and he knows that he's on the path to his destiny. Then Elle Monroe shows up, and throws off his entire plan. Elle - the daughter of his coach - is loud, rude, confident, and gets a special kick out of knocking Scott down a peg or two. Scott doesn't want to accept the help she's offering, but eventually he does, and it turns into a lot more than he was expecting. Scott isn't used to a lot of things, but there's one especially that he's never prepared for: a beautiful, loud girl stealing his jersey every day before their practices.

"That makes sense! Well it's nice to officially meet Leon Draisaitl's little sister!" he held his hand out. "Nice to meet you to Mitch Marner!" I grabbed his hand and shook it.
