Wild Doc Unearths Black Hockey's Game-Changing Roots
Dr. Joel Boyd, the Minnesota Wild's longtime team physician and the NHL's first Black doctor since 2000, spotlights the Colored Hockey League of the Maritimes that predated the NHL by over two decades. Black churches in Nova Scotia launched the league in the 1890s to keep their communities tight-knit, producing teams like the Africville Sea-Sides and Halifax Eurekas that played fast, celebratory hockey until resources ran dry in the 1930s.
