Winning the Maple Cup has always been Sophie Fournier's dream, ever since she was a little girl watching hockey in her grandparents' basement. She isn't satisfied after a season where she won hockey's biggest prize. She wants to hoist the Cup again, in back-to-back seasons. She's done it once before and, like any good hockey player, she knows to repeat a successful formula in order to find success again.

Only, this season is determined to be nothing like the last. Coach Butler breaks up not only the top line which drove their success, but he splits Sophie and Elsa. She's cut off from her favorite winger on the ice and off it, Elsa begins to date, leaving Sophie on her own. And with this being a Winter Games year, their NAHL season is halted for international play. For the first time since becoming teammates, Sophie will compete against Elsa for a gold medal.

It's a year of change and Sophie hates it. She knows what worked to win the Cup the previous season. Now, with multiple factors working against her, including her own coach, she has to figure out a new way to win the Cup. If she can't, it will be her shoulders the blame falls on.
