Rhea “Nightstrike” O’Hara built her reputation in games that ran past midnight, when the rink was quiet and mistakes got remembered. She played like she owned the dark, reading angles and bodies before anyone else knew the play was happening. Her stick finally snapped during a shift nobody can quite agree on, except that the lights went out, the benches stopped talking, and the other team suddenly started dumping the puck instead of carrying it. Rhea finished the game with a half-stick, two assists, and a penalty that never made the sheet. When the horn sounded, she taped the broken shaft, leaned it against the locker, and said it still had work left to do. Now it opens bottles the same way she played hockey: calm, efficient, and just intimidating enough to keep everyone honest.
