Sinopse

This is a Re-Posting of Sideshow 61 from Jan. 21, 2021   TODAY IS THE DAY … FINALLY, the Boston Bruins retire Willie O’Ree’s number 22!!   The NHL needs to retire his number league wide!     Biff and Jacques chat the Great Willie O’Ree. The Bruins, a little late to the dance, are finally retiring Willie’s #22 he wore in 1958 when he broke the color barrier.  Biff tells of a personal interaction with Willie in Santa Monica, CA a few years back.  Biff also points out while Willie’s number being retired most likely was a positive step brought on by the BLM movement, the NHL has a long way to go to make their “Hockey Is For Everyone” program a true outreach.    We highly suggest following (and donating to:) https://blackgirlhockeyclub.org Twitter: https://twitter.com/blackgirlshockey   CP: Twitter: https://twitter.com/carnivalpodcast   Biff on Twitter is @BiffPlaysHockey Joe on Twitter is: @Optigrabber Jacques on Twitter is @TheJacques4
