On this episode of Storytime Hockey, I take a look at the playing career of Herb Carnegie, one of the best players of his time, but he never made the NHL because of the colour of his skin. He went on to be one of the most dominant players in Canada, influencing the next generation of hockey players. I discuss his career after hockey and how he continued to influence the world of hockey and make a case for him to be included in the Hockey Hall of Fame. #CarnegieforHHOF
In our player profile we look at the playing career of Tony McKegney, whose entry into professional hockey placed him right in the middle of a racially charged 1970's Birmingham, Alabama.
