Katia Clement-Heydra was a breath of fresh air for Les Canadiennes

She was Montreal's second round pick in the 2015 CWHL Draft this summer after a very successful career at McGill University. Unfortunately for her, Montreal's first pick just happened to be Marie-Philip Poulin, one of the best players in the world.

But Clement-Heydra quickly started getting the attention she deserved once the focus turned to the ice.

"She’s someone who came in from the first day. She comes to every meeting. She’s the first one there, she always has a smile on her face. She’s truly the embodiment of a professional hockey player," said Canadiennes General Manager Meg Hewings.
