Alongside her team, she has won an impressive 21 medals, 17 of which were gold and four silver. Following her retirement from ice-hockey in 2006, Campbell-Pascall went on to be a rink-side reporter for Canada’s Hockey Night and became the first woman ever to do colour commentary on the broadcast. She also provided colour commentary for the women’s ice hockey during the 2010, 2014 and 2018 Winter Olympics. Now a sought-after motivational speaker, Campbell-Pascall speaks passionately to audiences across the country on leadership and teamwork skills, whilst drawing on her accomplishments. In 2007 she published her first book H.E.A.R.T, providing readers with practical advice on becoming a better athlete and person overall.
