ALMA MATTERS (Ep. 3): Three-time Olympic gold medalist Kim St-Pierre talks career


Kim St-Pierre is featured in the third episode of McGill Athletics and Recreation's new podcast, Alma Matters

St-Pierre, a three-time Olympic gold medalist from Châteauguay, Que., played for both the McGill University men's and women's hockey teams and was among the Class of 2020 inductees into the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. 

While earning an education degree, majoring in kinesiology, at McGill in 2004, the 5-foot-9 netminder turned the women's hockey program around nearly single-handedly. A member of the Martlets from 1998 to 2004, St-Pierre took a sabbatical to play at the Olympics and also played briefly with the McGill men's team in her senior year (2003-04). "Having the honour and the privilege to attend McGill University," is among the greatest highlights of her highly decorated career, says St-Pierre. 

She was the first McGill student in 90 years (and the first woman ever) to win an Olympic gold medal. A banner is raised at McConnell Arena to recognize her achievement. 

In 103 career varsity games (99 starts) with the McGill women, St-Pierre posted a 50-40-12 overall record with 27 shutouts and a 2.13 goals-against average. In regular season play, she registered a career 19-8-6 record in 33 games with 12 shutouts and a 1.74 GAA.
