Playing career edit

Jin played with the women's team of Harbin Ice Hockey in her hometown of Harbin, Heilongjiang, prior to joining the Chinese national team at the age of 17. She made her international debut at the 2000 IIHF Women's World Championship and played in all five games, though she did not record a point during the tournament – a performance that was repeated at the 2001 IIHF Women's World Championship. Jin's first international point was registered on the biggest stage of them all, in the women's ice hockey tournament at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, an assist on a Ma Xiaojun goal against Germany. The following year, she won bronze at the women's ice hockey tournament at the 2003 Asian Winter Games in Aomori Prefecture. Between 2004 and 2009, Jin represented her home country in the top division of the IIHF World Championship, as China placed seventh in 2004, sixth in 2005 and 2007, eighth in 2008, and ninth in 2009.

After China failed to qualify for the 2006 Winter Olympics, the Chinese national team took part in the 2005–06 and 2006–07 seasons of the Naisten SM-sarja (NSMs), the premier women's league in Finland, under the name "Team China." Selected as Team China's top two players, Jin and teammate Sun Rui were invited to sign with the Espoo Blues Naiset, the top team in the Naisten SM-sarja, and played with the team during the later part of the 2005–06 season.[2] She took home her second Asian Winter Games bronze medal with China at the 2007 Changchun games. In the 2007–08 season, she, along with her teammate Qi Xueting, played with the Strathmore Rockies of Strathmore, Alberta, in the Western Women's Hockey League (WWHL), in order to further develop in the lead-up to the 2008 World Championship.[3]

At the 2009 Winter Universiade, Jin scored the first goal in the first game of the first women's ice hockey tournament ever included as part of the Winter Universiade programme, as China went on to win silver.[4] She represented her country as an alternate-captain at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, where she tallied the second-most points of all players on the team. China claimed its third consecutive bronze medal at the 2011 Asian Winter Games, boosted by Jin's tournament-leading 7 assists. After the Chinese national team was relegated from the IIHF top division at the 2009 Women's World Championship, she completed two World Championship tournaments in Division I prior to her retirement in 2013.
