Riveters: Johnston and Russo on NHL Network

New York Riveters All-Stars Ashley Johnston and Rebecca Russo appeared on the NHL Network last night to talk about the growth of women’s hockey, the Riveters’ season and Stretch’s love of the Montreal Canadiens.

Rebecca Russo mentioned Julie Chu, Mark Messier and Martin St. Louis as players she looked up to growing up and Stretch singled out Cassie Campbell as her greatest inspiration.

During the chat with Michelle McMahon and Steve Mears the New York Post’s Feb. 20th article on the Riveters’ captain was mentioned.

“So I work about a nine hour day at a robotics firm, we make dispensing equipment,” Johnston explained.
