Lighting the Lamp

Entering her third season, Sophie Fournier has almost everything she wants. She's the captain of the Concord Condors, she's roommates and linemates with Elsa Nyberg, the elite Swedish winger she's wanted to play alongside since the Zurich U-Tourney.

There are two major things she's missing, though. She doesn't have her next contract lined up, and she still hasn't won the Maple Cup, hockey's most coveted prize. If she wins the Cup, she'll have leverage going into her contract negotiations. And, in case she needed more motivation, this is Benoit Delacroix's final season as a Concord Condor, and she's determined he won't retire without lifting the Cup.
