Amid ongoing conversations around systemic racism in hockey, former player and coach from Garden River felt compelled to tell the full story of his life and career
The knock at the door was the delivery of the Jack Adams Award — a prestigious nod given annually to the NHL's coach of the year.
"I lifted my foot, and with all the strength I had, kicked the box, sending it hurtling," Nolan continued. "I heard it land with a loud metallic crash." He dives in on life in Garden River, the challenge of being an Indigenous child at school in Sault Ste. Marie, and playing junior in Kenora, Ont., where he dealt with racism from all sides, including teammates.
Nolan then returned to the Greyhounds as coach and helped the team to three Memorial Cup appearances, culminating with a victory in 1993.
