This sandbox is going to have several bios of fictional NHL players

Mia Donio
Mia Donio (Born June 22, 2003) is an American professional ice hockey right wing for the Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Early Life and career
Donio was born on June 22, 2003, in Atlantic City, New Jersey. She grew up in Hammonton, New Jersey. Because of the relative lack of youth ice hockey programs in South Jersey, Donio began playing field hockey at the age of 5, but after attending a Philadelphia Flyers game in 2010, and experiencing the team's run to the Stanley Cup Final, she expressed an interest in transitioning her game to the ice. She tried out for and made the Flyers Youth team, the NHL club's official youth hockey team, and played with them until 2018, when she joined the USNTDP–preferring it to playing high school ice hockey, especially since Hammonton High School did not offer it. Scouts for the QMJHL's Sherbrooke Phoenix noticed her skill, and Sherbrooke chose her in the 7th round of the 2019 QMJHL entry draft.

2019–20
Donio impressed in Sherbrooke's 2019 training camp and made the team. She was one of the biggest surprises of the season, playing in all 63 games alongside fellow 2021 NHL draft pick Jane Bergeron. Donio scored 26 goals and had 38 assists for 64 points as Sherbrooke finished with a 51–8–3–1 record after the season was paused due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

2020–21
Donio began the shortened 2020–21 season on the Phoenix's top line with Begeron. Across 20 games, Donio scored 19 goals and had 13 assists for 32 points as the team went 23–3–1–0 (47 points) despite a season that, for them, was heavily plagued with Covid-19. The #2 seed in the playoffs, Sherbrooke defeated the Baie-Comeau Drakkar in a three game sweep in the first round, but lost to Rimouski Océanic three games to one in the quarterfinals. In 7 playoff games, Donio scored 2 goals and had 3 assists for 5 points.

2021-22
In 2021-22 with Sherbrooke, Donio had her best season in junior. She played in all 68 games, scoring 117 points with 47 goals and 60 assists as the Phoenix, without Bergeron, won the Western Division with a 46–17–3–2 record (97 points) and had the best record in the Western Conference. In the playoffs, they defeated Baie-Comeau in four games in the First round, swept the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada in the conference semifinals, upset the Charlottetown Islanders in five games in the league semifinals, and then defeated the 7th-seeded Shawinigan Cataractes 4 games to one in the President's Cup Championship. Donio played in all 17 games, leading the team with 11 goals and 15 assists for 26 points to help the team win its first ever title.

Professional Career
Donio was selected by the Boston Bruins with the 42nd overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. She signed a 3-year, entry-level contract with Boston on July 29, 2021, and returned to Sherbrooke for the 2021-22 season.

Once Sherbrooke's season ended on June 1, 2022, Donio joined the Boston Bruins, who were still playing in the 2022 Stanley Cup playoffs, for game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final in Boston against the Tampa Bay Lightning. In her debut, she assisted on Eva Roth's goal in the second period, which was the deciding goal in the Bruin's 3–1 win. Boston won the series in 6 games, with Donio adding her first goal in game 6, and advanced to the Stanley Cup Final, were they faced the Colorado Avalanche. In the series, Donio played in every game, scoring a goal in game 1 and getting two assists in game 3. Overall in the playoffs, Donio played in 10 games and scored 6 points but the Bruins lost to Colorado in six games.

Personal Life
Donio is the middle of three sisters. Her younger sister, Lucia, was selected by the San Jose Sharks in the first round of the 2024 NHL Entry Draft and played junior hockey for the Owen Sound Attack of the OHL.

Donio has been dating Evan Arceo, a professional soccer player for the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer (MLS), since October 2023. The two met while the Crew were in Massachusetts to play the New England Revolution. The pair bought a home in Princeton, New Jersey, during the 2024 NHL off-season.

Donio grew up a fan of the Philadelphia Flyers.

Emma Longo
Emma Longo (born August 27, 2003) is an American professional ice hockey center and alternate captain for the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL). She was selected first overall in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft by the Sabres.

Born in Flagstaff, Arizona, Longo grew up a fan of the Arizona Coyotes and quickly became a fan of fellow Arizonan Auston Matthews. After playing for the USA Hockey National Team Development Program, she was drafted into the Ontario Hockey League by the Erie Otters, with whom she played from 2019-20. With the OHL season cancelled in 2020-21 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Longo signed professionally with Lausanne HC of the Swiss National League (ice hockey). The top prospect in the 2021 draft, she was chosen by the Sabres and started her NHL career that year.

2021-22
Longo made her NHL debut in the Sabres first game of the 2021-22 season, against the Montreal Canadiens, scoring her first NHL goal and recording an assist in a 5–1 win. On October 28 in Anaheim, she scored her first overtime winner, and 5th goal of the season, which propelled Buffalo to a 5–1–1 start. After playing in the teams' first 23 games, Longo fractured her wrist on December 2 in a game against the Florida Panthers. She missed two months before returning to play on February 10. After featuring in the Sabres next 6 games—in which she scored 4 points, she suffered a high-ankle sprain on February 20 in Columbus, which caused her to miss the remainder of her rookie season. Longo ended her first year with 10 goals and 12 assists for 22 points—but played in just 29 games. Still, her strong production overall gave hope for her sophomore year.

2022-23
In 2022-23, Longo started the year with the Sabres and scored 2 goals in their season-opening victory over the Ottawa Senators. On October 31 against Detroit, she scored her first NHL hat-trick in an 8–3 win. After scoring 10 goals in her first 11 games of the season, however, she suffered a dislocated shoulder after a hit during a November 5 game against the Tampa Bay Lightning. While the injury did not require surgery, it was announced on November 7 that she would miss at least 3 months. After a rigorous recovery period, Longo returned to the Sabres on February 11. She played in 29 of the teams' last 31 games, albeit sparingly, as Buffalo found itself embroiled in a playoff push. Despite recording just 12 minutes of TOI over those 29 games, she recorded 14 goals and helped Buffalo to 42 wins, their most since 2011. Although the Sabres missed the playoffs, Longo had 24 goals and 10 assists for 34 points in 41 games on the season. Still, though, there was fear and worry throughout the Sabres organization that she had yet to play more than half of the games in either of her first two years

2023-24
Longo played her first truly full season in the NHL in 2023-24. On August 25, 2023, two days before her 20th birthday, she signed a 4-year extenstion with the Sabres, with the organization and general manager Kevyn Adams demonstrating confidence in their franchise center. She proved that the team was right by delivering one of the best individual seasons in Sabres history, scoring 55 goals (the most for a Sabre since 1993), 45 assists, and 100 points (most since 1975).

Caitlyn Fields
Caitlyn Fields (born May 18, 2003) is an American professional ice hockey right wing and alternate captain for the Nashville Predators of the National Hockey League (NHL). She was selected in the first round of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft by the Predators, and made her NHL debut that year.

Early life and career
Fields was born on May 18, 2003 in Lexington, Massachusetts.

Junior Career
Fields was selected with the 8th pick in the 2019 WHL Bantam Draft by the Seattle Thunderbirds, and played with the team from 2019-21. In her first season with Seattle, she led the team in scoring with 37 goals, 45 assists, and 82 points across 63 games as the Thunderbirds had a 37–18–5–3 record when the season was paused due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Her 80 points and 16 years old were the most for a player that young in the WHL since 1993–and her performance caused her to surge in rankings for the 2021 NHL Draft. Returning to Seattle for the shortened 2020-21 season, she scored 17 points—12 goals and 5 assists—for a Thunderbirds team that finished second in the leauge with a 19–3–1–0 record (39 points) through 23 games.

2021-22
Fields was selected with the 19th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft by the Nashville Predators. She signed her 3-year, entry level contract with Nashville on July 30. Initially expected to return to Seattle for a final developmental season in 2021–22, she, along with fellow first-round draftee Julie Petters, chose to play professionally immediately, joining the Predators for training camp. She played in 3 preseason games and impressed, scoring 4 goals and getting an assist in games that the Predators all won. She was optioned to the AHL's Milwaukee Admirals to start the season, but, following significant injuries to several Predators players—including Daniel Davidson, Matt Duchene, and Roman Josi—she, along with Petters and Connor Eberly, were surprisingly recalled to the NHL on October 25. Predators general manager David Poile and coach John Hynes expressed strong confidence in the rookies, both stating that they believed Fields and Petters had enough talent and scoring prowess to quickly adjust to the NHL level–and were two of the keys to bringing a team that had been fairly sluggish over the last two seasons back into Stanley Cup contention. Fields made her debut alongside Petters that night against the San Jose Sharks. In her debut, she scored her first NHL goal in a 5–2 win, and from that moment on, she would completely turn the franchise on its head. Fields played every game the rest of the season and she and Julie Petters set countless franchise records. In a 6–0 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets on November 30, Fields scored her first NHL hat-trick, making her the 5th-youngest NHL player to score 3 goals in a game (18 years and 196 days). On January 11, she recorded another hat-trick and scored the overtime winner against the Colorado Avalanche. On January 13, she, along with Petters and Josi, were named NHL All-Stars. On February 22 in Florida, she scored her 27th and 28th goals of the season to set a new Predators rookie record, breaking the previous record of 26 set by teammate Jamie Carter in 2015. On March 27, 2022, during a 5–4 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, Fields scored her 35th goal to set the Predators franchise record for goals in a single season with a snapshot from the circle in the first period. Minutes later, Petters would also break the record by scoring her 35th. She notched another hat-trick on March 29, a 10–1 over the Ottawa Senators. With her 40th goal of the year on April 19, she became the second ever 18-year old to score 40 goals in a single season. The Predators qualified for the Stanley Cup Playoffs as the West's second wild card with a 45–30–7 record (97 points), but were swept by the Colorado Avalanche in 4 games in the First Round. Fields finished her record-setting season by scoring 43 goals and recording 33 assists for 76 points in 76 games, and surging up to play on the first line alongside Petters. She scored 3 goals in her four playoff games. Fields and Petters were both named finalists for the Calder Memorial trophy, which Petters won, and were named to the All-NHL Second Team.

Personal Life
Growing up in the Boston metropolitan area, Fields and her sister were fans of the Boston Bruins. During the Bruins Stanley Cup run in 2011, they attended game 2 of the Eastern Conference final between the Bruins and Lightning, which Boston won 6–5. Fields credits that run as the spark that made her fall in love with hockey. After winning the Stanley Cup in 2024, she said that while her childhood dream was to play for Boston, "being able to beat them is even sweeter".

Her sister Maureen went undrafted in the 2021 NHL draft but now plays for the Vegas Golden Knights and is also a Stanley Cup champion, winning in 2023. Since they have both won cups, Caitlyn and Maureen have stated that their goal is to keep winning with their current teams and there are no plans for them to become the first pair of sisters to play together.

Fields lives in the Boston area during the offseason and remains a fan of MLB's Boston Red Sox, the NFL's New England Patriots and the NBA's Boston Celtics.

Maureen Fields
Maureen Fields (born May 18, 2003) is an American professional ice hockey left wing for the Vegas Golden Knights of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Early Life
Fields was born on May 18, 2003 in Lexington, Massachusetts, the twin sister of current Nashville Predators forward Caitlyn Fields. Both sisters began playing ice hockey at the age of 6. They began playing together at Lexington High School—while Caitlyn was drafted into the WHL at age 16, Maureen played all four years with Lexington, until her graduation in 2021.

2021-22
Despite a strong 4 years of high school ice hockey, Fields was not looked at as a strong prospect for the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, primarily due to her small size. She went undrafted in 2021, but shortly thereafter was offered a contract by the Vegas Golden Knights. On August 24, 2021, she signed with Vegas and upon the start of the regular season was assigned to the team's ECHL affiliate, the Fort Wayne Komets. With the Komets, she played in 31 games, and greatly surprised as she scored 16 goals and 20 assists for 36 points. Her performance earned her promotion to the Golden Knight's AHL affiliate, the Henderson Silver Knights on February 6. She played in 28 of Henderson's final 33 games, scoring 11 goals and recording 9 assists. After the Silver Knight's game on April 23, Fields was recalled to Vegas, and made her NHL debut in a 4–5 shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks the next day. Fields would play in each of the Knight's last 4 games, and scored her first NHL goal on April 27 against the Chicago Blackhawks, and scored her second in a 7–4 win over the St. Louis Blues in the final game of the regular season on April 29. With Vegas, Fields scored twice, her only two NHL points. As Vegas missed the playoffs, she was returned to Henderson on April 30 and played in their final regular season game, scoring 2 goals in a 4–0 win over Ontario. In the Calder Cup Playoffs, Fields played in 16 games. In the Pacific Division first round against the favored Colorado Eagles, Fields scored a hat-trick in a 6–4 game 3 win as Henderson advanced to the second round. In the second Round against the Ontario Reign, Fields scored 2 goals and had 2 assists as the Silver Knights swept the Reign in three games. Henderson advanced to the Pacific Division finals, where they defeated the Stockton Heat 3 games to 1. Fields took a step back in the series, scoring only 1 point, an assist in the Knight's 3–1 win in game 2. In the Western Conference Finals against the Chicago Wolves, Fields again scored only 1 goal (and 1 point) as Chicago eliminated the Silver Knights, 4–1. She ended Henderson's playoff run scoring 9 points—6 goals and 3 assists—across 16 games.

2022-23
Entering the 2022-23 NHL season, Fields attended Vegas's training camp and appeared in 3 preason games, scoring a goal. She returned to Henderson to start the season, and played in the team's first 20 games. However, an injury to Hannah McPhearson, Fields was recalled to Vegas on November 28. She made her season debut on December 1 in Pittsburgh, and scored her first goal of the year that night in Vegas's 4–3 loss. She remained with the Knights the rest of the season. On January 14, 2023, against the Edmonton Oilers, Fields suffered an upper-body injury, causing her to miss the Knights' next 7 games. She returned on February 7 in Nashville, the first game after the All-Star Break (which was in Las Vegas). She played in 22 of the Knights' last 30 games, still nursing the injury from January. Fields played 39 regular season games with Vegas, scoring 10 goals and 11 assists for 21 points. Vegas went 51–22–9 on the season, making the playoffs as the #1 seed in the Western Conference. Fields' overall strong regular season performance resulted in her surprising inclusion on the teams' playoff roster. In the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Fields surprised by playing in all 22 games, scoring 3 goals and notching 5 assists, including the series–winning goal in the Western Conference Final against the Dallas Stars. The Golden Knights defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins in six games in the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals, earning Fields her first Stanley Cup Championship in just her second season. The fact that Mo won a cup before Caitlyn became a talking point throughout the off-season.

2023-24
Prior to 2023 training camp, Fields hyperextended her left knee on September 1, which would sideline her for at least 4 weeks. She returned to camp on October 3, and played in the Knights' final preseason game on October 7. She played in the first game of the season and scored a goal in a 4–1 win over the Seattle Kraken. Fields truly became a staple of the lineup in 2023–24, playing in 67 games while scoring 14 goals, getting 28 assists, and recording 42 points for a team that won the President's Trophy with 120 points. In the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, she played in all 12 of the Golden Knights' games, scoring 4 goals to go along with an assist for 5 points. Despite her strong performance, the Knights were eliminated by the Vancouver Canucks in seven games in the second—failing to win a home game the whole series. The loss prevented a Conference Final matchup between Mo and Caitlyn, which would've been the first ever playoff series played between two sisters in NHL history. With Caitlyn winning the Stanley Cup with the Nashville Predators in June, however, they became the first pair of sisters to win Stanley Cups in back to back seasons.

2024-25
A restricted free agent after the 2023-24 season, Fields signed a 4 year extension worth $3.5 million on July 10, 2024.
