The Lethbridge Eagles hosted a memorial hockey game for a former teammate who lost her battle with mental health in hopes they can continue the conversation for others.
People say that a sports team is like a second family and for the U22 Lethbridge Eagles women’s team — that couldn’t be more true.
On Saturday, the team hosted their first memorial hockey game in honour of former teammate, Emily Middagh.
Middagh lost her battle with mental health in February.
“It’s going to be an emotional day, whether you knew her or not,” said team captain, Skylar Colonna.
Colonna described Middagh as creative, humble, soft-spoken and quirky.
“I remember her stepping on the ice the first time and her playing and was like, ‘Oh my god, this girl is incredible.'”
Head coach Megan Skelly also remembers that first skate.
“Honestly, the first game she came out and scored two goals and the smile she had on her face coming back to the bench was just amazing,” Skelly added.
