"Oh thank fuck. . ."

The curse slips easily as she notices someone else enter the room, leaned back too far in her chair if only to allow her boots to rest upon the metallic table. It's far from her first instance of right place, not fast enough to outrun some cops, and ni truth - she's already had quite the long night as is.

"does this mean i get to go home now? i got a cheap tv dinner waiting for me to heat up."

@sauvageau said: " you absolute fucking idiot. "

"Fuck you. Fuck you! I'm smarter than you, I'm better at this than you, I'm literally fucking psychic. Moron!"

there is a moment of hesitation as they end up under the mistletoe. she's not quite drunk enough to make the first move, but she's had just enough to be bold enough to ask. "are you going to kiss me now?" / @sauvageau (🎄)

everyone lies a little. i lie. / @sauvageau.

❛  you are a detective. that does not surprise me in the slightest. ❜ as much as they seek to uncover & provide the truth, they usually rely on falsehoods to attain verity. usually. see the contrast ? but kwannon doesn't remain seated to fester over morals, but rather enjoy the warm hojicha she brings to her lips with a lengthy sip. there's simply no other establishment within in twenty mile radius that makes it the way this place does.

she finally shifts her gaze across to his once her occupied hand returns the teacup to it's saucer, irises narrowed, as if she means to spring a surprise quiz on him. ❛  have you told me a lie today ? ❜

[vitalphenomena]

"I wouldn't quit on you," she says, shoulder nudging his in return. "You're one of the only people I wouldn't quit on, actually. I can do my thing tonight, baby. Just tell me about the case. Tell me who who're after. So that I can focus."

"I won't leave you fucking hanging. I'm a bitch, but I'm not a total bitch."

He nods, listening to her. He could only admire her for standing up for herself, even if it was up to him.

Frank can be cynical at most times, but he's not a complete asshole. Mostly.

" You know, for a moment there I thought you were going to quit on me. " He tells her with a small laugh, giving her shoulder a gentle nudge. " Are you going to be able to do your thing, or should we try tomorrow? "

Simulation Theory

However, beyond fiction, the simulation theory has also been addressed in academic circles, where physicists and philosophers explore whether this idea can be scientifically tested.

The Simulation Theory and its Testability The idea that we live in a simulation has been popularised in contemporary culture through films, novels, and video games. This notion raises fundamental questions about the nature of reality and consciousness. However, beyond fiction, the simulation theory has also been addressed in academic circles, where physicists and philosophers explore whether…

Full artcle

I couldn't hold back my tears.

I don't know if it's age, but I seem to get more emotional in these situations.

It's difficult to put into words what I felt when I jumped onto the ice at the Verdun Auditorium on January 13 for our team's home opener.

The crowd was incredible, but it was more than just the ovation that put me in this state. This emotion represented years of effort. I dreamed of this moment for a long time and, finally, we were there.

When I saw great women like Caroline Ouellette, France St-Louis, Kim St-Pierre and Danielle Goyette arrive on the ice, I got chills. I was so happy that people recognized them and gave them the ovation they deserve. Without them, I would not have had the same career.

I'll be honest. At one point, I feared this moment would never come. It took longer than expected.��Yes, there were these showcases , weekends where matches were organized in different cities, but it had nothing to do with a real professional league.

JI remember the first time I came to see the installations in Verdun with Danièle Sauvageau. There was almost nothing done. We had our work boots and construction helmets. She had a vision which she explained to me in detail. But I really had a hard time imagining it.

Our fans are the best. Friends who play on other teams told me that. It's not a crowd like any other in Montreal. She is noisy. She is invested. It's important to me to give back to people who are on the move. I am now more comfortable in this role. It’s the experience that comes in, you have to believe.

Before a live interview on Radio-Canada during an intermission at the Verdun Auditorium, a boy called me to offer me a treat. He threw one at me and I caught it in midair with my mouth. I started my interview anyway, with a smile on my face and my mouth full. It's part of my identity, my personality. Interaction with young people is really important to me.

The enthusiasm for our league is very real. I feel it. I hear it too. In Ottawa, I got booed when I went for a penalty shot. Being booed at home, in Canada, I admit that it's a first! It's weird, but it doesn't bother me. After all, that's what we wanted: a competitive league, rivalries and fans who identify with their city.

After a game in Minnesota, we went for a beer. Fathers came to see us to tell us how excited they were to see professional women's hockey. I saw how happy they were for us. It was in Minnesota, we are the team from Montreal and, despite everything, we attract attention.

This anecdote made me realize how our situation has nothing to do with what we experienced in the past. The enthusiasm is there and I have the impression that it is not just the effect of novelty. It will last and it's truly magical.

OHe talks to me a lot about this match last January 20, against Toronto . In fact, I'm mostly told about this goal scored with 17 seconds left in the third period and that we lost by one goal. Honestly, I don't know what happened. I had a blackout . It's rare that I take the puck and try to get to the goal on my own. I saw an opening. It was not premeditated. I was the first surprise when I scored.

Then, I was sent to shootouts four times by my coach. I obviously wasn't ready for that. It took me a little by surprise. It's not my favorite rule, but I'll get used to it.

I was burned out after that match. It's a lot of adaptation. LPHF games, Canada-US Rivalry Series, travel. We're not used to having such a big workload. You have to prepare well, but also make sure you recover well. That's the beauty of this league. It allows me to continue to surpass myself, to learn new things.

I like hockey. I love that. And what I prefer is when the score is close. I like it when you have to give a little more, when you have to empty the tank. When it really counts, that's when I'm at my best. It turns me on.

My parents always told me: You practice like you play. It always stuck in my mind. I don't take anything for granted. I am aware of the pressure, but I have learned to manage it over the years. I don't forget that it's a team sport. I'm lucky to have been able to achieve some of these great moments, but I know I'm not alone in this.

I won Olympic medals, but I also lost world championships. I even wondered if I was capable of winning one. The 2018 Olympics were arguably the most difficult time of my career. I was practically hiding. I didn't want to see anyone. I thought I had disappointed the whole world by failing to bring home the gold medal.

I also learned not to read everything, to leave certain comments aside. Hockey is such a difficult sport. You can do the same thing every game, but the rebound won't go your way, it won't work or the opposing goalie will be on fire. I keep in mind that if you give your maximum in every match, it will happen.

People expect me to score goals, but that's not all I am. I take a lot of pride in blocking shots, in raising sticks in defensive withdrawal. I can still improve my defensive game. To win championships, you have to count, but the little details in the defensive zone will make the difference.

Even though she has been on the national team for a long time and is one of the best players in the world, Laura Stacey is less known to Quebec fans. Why her, they then asked themselves?

I knew full well that Danièle Sauvageau had not chosen her because she is my fiancée. Laura, she's an incredible player. A real power forward who has remarkable discipline.

She chose to move to another province. She is learning the language and doesn't hesitate to try to do bits of interviews in French. It's not easy, but she embraces her new reality.

I'm proud of her. I am proud to see her doing promotions for the media in French. I'm proud that people are discovering her personality, the player she is and that Montrealers are falling in love with her because she really deserves it.

OI often ask myself why I continue.

I don't have to play hockey. I do it because I love it. I feel the best on the ice.

I have the Olympic gold medals, the World Championship gold medals. Now I want to win an LPHF title in Montreal, at home.

Having a positive impact on the next generation has become my priority. To see the little girls in the stands, with stars in their eyes, it's worth more than championships, it's worth more than medals.

Eventually, I want to start a family. It would be in my next projects. We love kids, so this is really important to us.

For the moment, it's still hockey first and foremost.

MONTRÉAL, QC (October 11, 2024) – The Montréal Victoire unveiled its roster for the upcoming training camp ahead of the 2024-25 Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) season. The roster is comprised of 31 players who will report to the Verdun Auditorium on Tuesday, Nov. 12.

The Montréal Victoire training camp roster will consist of 16 forwards, 10 defenders and 5 goaltenders. Players from five different countries will be uniform at the start of camp, as 20 Canadians, 7 Americans, 2 Swedes, 1 German and 1 Czech will report to Head Coach Kori Cheverie ahead of the 2024-25 season.

"This announcement proves that the season is upon us, and we are very excited to see all these talented players assembled on the ice. We sense even more excitement as we approach this second season. Our interactions with our fans have also showed us that they are very much looking forward for this season to get under way,” said Montréal Victoire General Manager Danièle Sauvageau.

A Mini Camp will take place at the Verdun Auditorium from Nov. 19-22, when the Victoire, the Boston Fleet and the Ottawa Charge will assemble.
