Ethan Bear, an Indigenous hockey player from the Ochapowace Nation, wears his nameplate in Cree syllabics. His family worked with the NHL to ensure accuracy.
“It will be an honour to wear this jersey tonight. I feel like I will be wearing it for all those Indigenous players who came before me and those Indigenous kids dreaming of playing in the NHL.”
