She previously played with the Markham Thunder and the Dartmouth Big Green and competed internationally with the Canadian under-18 and under-22 teams. She won a silver medal with Team Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics and a gold medal at the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Playing career

[edit]

Stacey represented Team Ontario at the 2011 Canada Winter Games.[1] During the 2011–12 national team season, she was a member of the national under-18 team that participated in a three-game series vs. the United States in August 2011.[2] She scored a goal in the gold medal game of the 2011 Canadian National Women's Under-18 Championships for Team Ontario Red.[3] In the first game of the 2012 IIHF World Women's U18 Championship on December 31, 2011, Stacey posted three points in a 13–1 rout of Switzerland.[4]

Stacey played for Team Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics, playing in five games and earning a silver medal.[5] On January 11, 2022, Stacey was named to Canada's 2022 Olympic team.[6][7]

NCAA

[edit]

On January 23, 2012, it was announced that Stacey committed to the Dartmouth Big Green.[8] In her first season, she was named to the ECAC Hockey All-Rookie Team and was one of three finalists for the ECAC Rookie of the Year. As a junior, she earned All-Ivy Honorable Mention. In her senior year (2015–16), she captained the Big Green and earned All-Ivy first-team honours.

CWHL

[edit]

After her college career, Stacey joined the Canadian Women's Hockey League (CWHL). Stacey was selected third overall by the Brampton Thunder in the 2016 CWHL Draft. She made her CWHL debut in a road contest against the Calgary Inferno on October 8, 2016; she scored her first goal on October 9. She recorded her first multi-point game on October 16, against Les Canadiennes de Montréal.

In her first season in the league, Stacey was named to the 3rd CWHL All-Star Game. Competing with Team White, she was joined by fellow Thunder teammates Laura Fortino, Jess Jones and Rebecca Vint. Stacey logged an assist on a goal scored by Marie-Philip Poulin.[9]

In the 2018 Clarkson Cup finals against Kunlun Red Star, Stacey scored with 2:11 left in overtime, giving Markham a 2–1 victory and its first championship.[10]

PWHL

[edit]

In 2023, when the rival Professional Women's Hockey Players Association and Premier Hockey Federation consolidated into the new Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL),[11][12] Stacey was signed as one of Montreal's first three players, alongside Poulin and Ann-Renée Desbiens.[13] Ahead of the team's inaugural season, Stacey was named an assistant captain.[14] She was also selected as the team's player representative with the PWHL Players Association, the league's labour union.[15]
