I ask cause I just saw some black player for Philly punched a NY Rangers player in the face and gave him a concussion. And I was honestly shocked to see a black hockey player.

There are way more than 2 or 3. I would guess there are around 30 black NHL players.

I knew I shoulda made a thread about Simmonds shootin CacDonough the fade with some extra :pacspit: on the side. Even as a Ranger fan I was :blessed:

Always someone gotta be obtuse about stuff like this

I's pretty well known that there's plenty of brothas in the NHL, but people (of all races, mind you) still gotta hold onto stereotypes. I still credit the OP for actually being interested tho.

Dunno about obtuse but people are straight ignorant about hockey. Offering opinions on the status of an enforcer without having even watched a game

A number of those current pro players are playing in farm teams so you won't see them on the ice, but they do have contracts with the associate pro teams.

Just to put things in perspective, there are two pro black goalies listed. But Malcolm Subban is playing on a farm team of Boston, Providence Bruins. Ray Emery is playing with a German pro team now. That means there are zero black goalies in the NHL right now.

Wasn't Malcom just called up? And I think he got hurt like a week ago
