She was really excited to have this potential about bringing a championship or a shield to the city and having a much better season than in the past season.
So I'm really excited to see what they can put together.
And she is a key component of that for them to have success this year.
And I think they struggled without her.
So it's nice to see how she's excited about the potential of her return.
And I don't think we should put a date on it, because we want her at her best.
So it's, you know, everyone at their own pace.

Yeah, it's important not only physically but also mentally for her to really just respect her own timeline and giving herself grace after what her body just went through.
But when it comes to Chicago, obviously looking to have her back as soon as possible, especially with that tough season.
At the end of the season, it wasn't too terrible for Chicago.
They were really stealing points there and making life a little bit difficult for those trying to make it into the postseason.

Yeah, I mean, they have to be able to, you know, provide her service because she is going to be their key player.
She is going to be their goal scorer, their –
Number nine potentially she can also play out wide but she's she can really play anywhere in the front six but I'm assuming she will especially because Ludmilla now is with San Diego and unfortunately she's left which is you know why they were doing so well and coming back in games last season but now they don't have that attacking threat.
So eventually when Mal gets back into the team, they will have to get players around her that can provide her that service and that quality that she needs in order to get in positions to create goals, goal scoring opportunities, and also just create success for the team.
