I think the incident you are reffering to (Brashear?) was a coincedence Caleb.
Though it is true that not many guys with skin pigment play in the NHL, however I think this is something that is beginning to change and in the future you will see alot more of IMHO.
Just saw some show recently hosted by Cuba Gooding Jr. about this subject. African Americans do have a proud history in the NHL and a future in it. What is cool about the NHL is that it seems to have a diverse talent pool, lots of Europeans. Lots of canadians. Plenty of different nationalities.
