French Import to Miami

[Horcrux 322]

Who is the Miami Marauders newest winger? She is a french import from Metz which borders Germany. Her father was German  and sold cars for a car dealership and her mother a French teacher. They hit it off instantly and had Ariane. From a young age she had loved the sport of hockey attending all of the Olympic games she could to see her French team.

Her first experience with the Victory Hockey League was ten years ago at the age of 12 when she caught the World Juniors, Team Western Europe hosted a game in France and she spent her entire summers allowance and savings to buy a train ticket to go rep Western Europe. As a young French player she was enthralled by how many Europeans were in the league. She went home and started watching every game she could find online and on TV.

It was here she found the Helsinki Titans, she fell in love with their Jerseys, the logo...just everything admittedly she might have spent a tad too much money on Titans merch. So when she got the call from the Victory Hockey League Ten years later she almost fainted. At 22 and fresh out of university the Miami Marauders General Manager (name here) called her offering her a contract to play for them. She had never been to America before and would be playing professional hockey. She was over the moon and hoped on a plane the same day.

Ariane Leblanc is an advocate for the LGBTQ+ Community is sports, being gay herself she was nervous about joining the league. It was quickly made clear however that in this league, as long as you can play, you can stay. She was at practice today with #Standuptohate on her stick, written on some tape that was placed on the shaft. Her laces for the season will be rainbow themed and any goal she scores she will donate $1000 to Charity. When asked about all this, she seemed determined.

Via Translator:
“I am not doing it to be flashy, or stand out, or to try to be better than everyone. I'm doing it because I'm proud of who I am, what I am and I think that should be celebrated. I want to let people in the community know that no matter your Identity, Hockey is a sport for everyone. I am excited to kick ass and start making a contribution here”

Via Translator:
“The opportunity to play hockey professionally in this league, a league I watched as a kid, is amazing. Getting to lace up my skates and play with some of the best players on the planet will be a challenge, but here i am and lets get to work”

Miami is looking to repeat as champions again in season 80, maybe Leblanc can be that added depth that pushes them over. She seemed eager to get on the ice and start scoring, finish up a photo shoot with her new team and had nothing but smiles. The future in the league looks bright, and we will follow Ariane Leblanc very closely.

Review: One of the best Media Spots ive seen from a new member yet. It was entertaining as well as has a good story and even includes a translated part? That was a nice touch. Great Job 9/10 because nothing is perfect.
