Senate passes bill to award congressional gold medal to first Black NHL player

ADVERTISEMENT O’Ree, 85, who is also known as the “Jackie Robinson of hockey,” competed professionally for more than two decades after first entering the league in 1958 as a player for the Boston Bruins. At the time he joined the league, O’Ree was blind in one eye due to an injury he sustained two years before. Yet the talented athlete competed in more than 40 games while in the league until 1961 and continued to compete professionally for many years after. Decades later, the hockey legend was tapped as the league’s first diversity ambassador in 1998, and, in the years since, O’Ree has devoted his time to making a social impact with his Hockey is for Everyone youth hockey program.

SNL’s Kenan Thompson is stumping for Willie O’Ree to receive Congressional Gold Medal Khari Thompson © Susan Walsh Willie O Ree broke the color barrier in the NHL with the Bruins. Saturday Night Live star Kenan Thompson says he didn’t know who Willie O’Ree was growing up not even while he was starring as the “knuckle puck”-shooting Russ Tyler in the Mighty Ducks movie franchise. But once he learned of O’Ree, who broke the NHL’s color barrier in 1958, and the push to award him the Congressional Gold Medal the highest civilian honor the United States Congress can bestow he was all in.

Willie O’Ree on May 1, 2019 Photo Credit: The Canadian Press/Tijana Martin On Jan. 18, 1958, the “Jackie Robinson of Hockey,” wearing a Boston Bruins jersey, glided across the ice at the historic Montreal Forum. Willie O’Ree who was born in Fredericton, N.B. on Oct 15, 1935, did not know he was breaking hockey’s colour barrier that evening. He was more concerned about his first game in the National Hockey League (NHL). “When I stepped on the ice with the Bruins, it did not dawn on me that I was breaking the colour barrier,” O’Ree said in his 2018 Hall of Fame acceptance speech. “That’s how focused I was on making my dream come true. I did not realize I had made history until I read it in the paper the next day.”
