Julia, Nicole Gosling lead Canada into women’s world championship
Julia and Nicole Gosling agree they like playing with each other a lot more than playing against each other.
“It’s pretty rare to do something this extravagant with your cousin,” said Julia, 23. “I’m super proud of her and where we've come from. It’s also realizing how good we've got together even just playing with each other and against each other.” “I'd rather her be on my team than playing against her for sure,” Nicole said. “It’s hard. She’s a big presence out there. She has a good shot, good hands, so you know she’s going to be a threat offensively. As a defenceman, I've got to be aware that she’s on the ice and try and shut her down.”
Their fathers and twin brothers, Paul and Peter, who didn’t play hockey but are University of Windsor football alumni, also prefer their daughters on the same side. “It was always not the best time in the schedule, but at least now we’re rooting for both girls. You just hope they do their part defensively and offensively to be successful for Canada.”“If one scores, the other one wants to score,” he said. “Watching them play together, they've got a connection. They have a chemistry. Don’t know if it’s just the Gosling in them or what, but they just know how to find each other.
“One of the knocks on her in the past has been her skating and she’s continued to work on that in college.”
