In 1895, twenty-five years before the birth of the National Hockey League, the Colored Hockey League of the Maritimes was formed in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The Colored League would emerge as a premier force in Canadian hockey and supply the resilience necessary to preserve a unique culture which exists to this day. Unfortunately their contributions were ignored, copied or stolen by white teams and hockey officials. Black Ice is the first written record of the Colored Hockey League in the Maritimes.
