There haven't been many, mainly for societal and cultural reasons, but blacks have been playing hockey as long as there have been pucks and ice.
I explored the reasons for the lack of black hockey players, as well as honouring the best and chronologically list all 52 have played in the league so far.
Full Story - From Herbie Carnegie to Willie O'Ree to Grant Fuhr to Jarome Iginla.
Also in February I celebrated the 1967 Toronto Maple Leafs by profiling every member of the team
Being a big international hockey buff, I had special features on the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez Vous 87. Don't forget I don't just profile NHLers. I also profile International Hockey Legends.
And for fans of the less sophisticated brand of hockey, I have special sections on Hockey's Tough Guys, featuring many classic fights on embeded video, and also a special look at the men behind The Hanson Brothers.
