Playing career

Chartrand began playing ringette as a child, but eventually shifted to ice hockey. By the age of 16, she was a member of Team Quebec. At the 1995 Canada Winter Games, she claimed a bronze medal in ice hockey.[1] Four years later, she won gold with Team Quebec at the Esso women's hockey nationals.

She played two seasons, 1998–99 and 1999–2000, with Laval Le Mistral of the National Women's Hockey League.

Prior to the 2002 Olympics, Chartrand attended St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York. As a member of the St. Lawrence Saints women's ice hockey program in the ECAC Hockey conference, Chartrand was named Rookie of the Week on January 15, 2001.[2]

She is one of only three athletes from St. Lawrence University to have an Olympic Gold Medal – the others are Ed Rimkus and Gina Kingsbury.[3]

International play

Chartrand competed at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City before her 24th birthday.[4] Chartrand was one of the youngest members of the team. Chartrand had two goals and an assist for Team Canada's gold medal-winning team at the 2002 Winter Olympics.[5]

Her previous experience with Team Canada was a gold medal at the 2001 IIHF Women's World Championship. Also a member of the Canada women's national inline hockey team, Chartrand won a gold medal at the 2002 FIRS Inline Hockey World Championships.
