Today we use Card of the Day to honor the birthday of Hockey Hall of Famer, Jayna Hefford. Hefford was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2018 for her contributions to Canadian Women’s Hockey Team.
Hefford was a member of six IIHF World Women’s Championships teams, four Olympic Gold Medal teams (and a Silver Medal team) and is second all-time for Team Canada in games, goals and points behind only the legendary Hayley Wickenheiser.
Hefford scored an amazing 439 goals in 418 games during her professional career. She had stints in the Central Ontario Women’s Hockey League, National Women’s Hockey League and the Canadian Women’s Hockey League. The CWHL has named their Most Outstanding Player award the Jayna Hefford Trophy.
