'Being up there on stage I have a feeling I'll be able to inspire other young women to keep pursuing their dreams,' said Jasmine Martinez.
But Thursday night, Philadelphia's Jasmine Martinez will be the face of the Flyers. She will represent the team in Montreal as they select 5th overall in the NHL Draft.
"Being up there on stage I have a feeling I'll be able to inspire other young women to keep pursuing their dreams," Martinez says."Because one day you'll get there as long as you keep trying, keep building connections, and you'll succeed at your dreams one day." "The weird thing that drew me in is the academics. In order to get on the ice I had to finish my homework and show my coach my homework, and that right there shows that Snider hockey isn't just about hockey. It's about education, uniting others, bringing others together," she says.
