I complained more than once about my male coworkers making jokes about the Patrick Kane rape case. As the only woman on the team, I was told I had to understand it was just 'locker room talk'. 2 months later, my contract wasn't renewed as promised.

Working at the Leafs was a dream, the culmination of everything I had worked hard for, and moved hard for. I got to do some amazing things and work with great people. It was also one of the hardest and most personally destructive experiences of my life.

I don’t know much about what is and isn’t a good GM. After the Leafs were done with me and what it did to me, I don’t even watch hockey anymore. But I like to think I know good people, and after the brief crossing of our paths, I will always think Kyle Dubas is great people.
