A two-time Olympic champion and six-time World Champion, Cassie is the only Canadian team captain to lead her team to two Olympic gold medals. Playing at the collegiate, professional, and international levels, Cassie has expertly overcome many odds and learned how to stay positive, motivated, and adaptive to new challenges in the face of adversity.

Following her retirement from hockey, Cassie pivoted to broadcasting, taking a position at Hockey Night in Canada. Filling in for Harry Neale during a snowstorm led Cassie to become the first woman to provide colour commentary on the Saturday night broadcast, making her a household name in the process and adding to her legendary status. Using her platform for good, Cassie has become a trailblazer for women in sport, advocating for a Women’s National Hockey League. She also devotes much of her time to partnerships with Ronald McDonald House, Scotiabank Girls HockeyFest, Chevrolet Good Deeds Cup, the Safe Haven Foundation of Canada Fund Development Committee, and as a member of the Board of Directors for both the Hockey Canada Foundation and Ronald McDonald House Alberta.

Cassie is an inductee to the Canada Sports Hall of Fame, an honouree of the Order of Hockey in Canada, a hockey mom, a recipient of the CWHL Humanitarian of the Year Award, an analyst for Sportsnet, a Member of the Order of Canada, and so many other things to her family, her teammates, and her fans across the country. She also holds honourary degrees from the University of Guelph, University of Windsor, University of Ottawa, University of British Columbia, and Mount Royal University.

“Cassie Campbell’s contributions to women’s hockey go far beyond her tremendous success with the national women’s team. Cassie Campbell has been and will continue to be an ambassador for the women’s game, as well as a role model and hero to thousands of young girls playing hockey in Canada.”
Bob Nicholson, chairman of the Edmonton Oilers Hockey Club and former president and CEO of Hockey Canada
