Jade Downie-Landry (born October 3, 1995) is a Canadian professional ice hockey forward for the New York Sirens of the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL).
Playing career
[edit]Amateur and post-secondary career
[edit]Captaining LHFDQ North at the 2013 Esso Cup, the Canadian women's under-18 club championships, Downie-Landry helped to secure the first Esso Cup victory by a Quebecois team.[1]
Downie-Landry played three seasons with the Dawson College Blues, from 2013 to 2016. In the 2015–16 season, she recorded 63 points in 24 games and was named league MVP.[2]
Although she considered playing college ice hockey in the United States, she ultimately chose to attend and play for McGill University, swayed in part by her father being diagnosed with leukemia.[2] Her freshman season, 2016–17, saw her record 13 goals and 28 points in 36 games. She was named to the conference and U Sports all-rookie teams, and was selected to play with the Hockey Canada national development team.[3]
Downie-Landry would win the McGill most outstanding scorer award in both 2017–18 and 2018–19. The latter season also saw her lead the conference in both regular season and playoff scoring, as well as named alternate captain and team MVP.[3][4] Qualifying for the national championship with a second place finish in the conference tournament, she and the Martlets finished in second at the 2019 U Sports Women's Ice Hockey Championship, where she was named championship MVP.[5]
In her senior year, Downie-Landry again led the Martlets in scoring, recording 24 goals and 45 points in 30 games, good for fourth in the league. For the third consecutive season, she was named the Martlets' most outstanding scorer.[3] Entering the conference championship ranked fifth in U Sports, the Martlets swept the best-of-three finals against the Université de Montréal to claim the 2020 conference title. Downie-Landry recorded six goals in four playoff games, including one in the tournament-clinching victory.[6]
The 2020–21 season would have been Downie-Landry's final year of U Sports eligibility, but the COVID-19 pandemic caused the season to be cancelled before it began on September 14, 2021.[7]
Returning as captain in 2021–22, her final season with the Martlets, Downie-Landry led the conference in goals and points, with 14 and 27, respectively, in 15 games. Her 1.80 points per game led all of U Sports, and she recorded a point on over half of McGill's goals. McGill finished first in the regular season and second in the conference championship, and Downie-Landry was named U Sports women's hockey player of the year and McGill University female athlete of the year.[8][9]
Professional career
[edit]Downie-Landry turned professional in the 2022–23 season, signing with Premier Hockey Federation (PHF) expansion franchise Montreal Force on July 25, 2022.[10] She scored her first PHF goal in the team's inaugural outing, a 5–3 victory over the Metropolitan Riveters on November 26, 2022, in which she recorded a hat-trick and an assist for four points.[11] She would go on to lead the Force in scoring, with 10 goals and 23 points in 24 games,[12] and was named to the All-Star Game.[13]
In the inaugural draft of the newly-created Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL), Downie-Landry was selected in the ninth round, 52nd overall by New York.[14] She signed with the club on November 1, 2023, becoming the first former PHF player to sign a PWHL contract.[15] As she did in the PHF, she recorded her first PWHL goals with a hat-trick, in a 4–1 victory over Boston on January 20, 2024.[16] Playing in all 24 games for last-place New York, Downie-Landry finished the year with 13 points.[17]
Personal life
[edit]Downie-Landry graduated from McGill University in 2020 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. She returned to pursue a Bachelor of Education in physical education.[7] She married her wife, Lyndee Flanagan, on September 14, 2024.[18]
