Not to divert this thread from its narrower focus, but just had to note the recent passing of First Nations hockey pioneer
Fred Sasakamoose (long listed as "Saskamoose"). Sasakamoose emerged from the physical and psychological torture of Canadian "residential schools" (q.v.) to become the first Indigenous Canadian to play in the NHL (Chicago, 1953-54). His entire NHL career consisted of just the 11 (not 8) games he played that one season, but he had a long minor-pro career and went on to become a huge positive influence in youth sports and in his Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation. Sasakamoose succumbed last week to Covid-19 at age 86. https://globalnews.ca/news/7503981/f...-livestreamed/ https://regina.ctvnews.ca/a-first-na...ered-1.5218846
