With hockey looking to make a comeback soon, former Nashville Predators players are making a difference in the community and in the world.

Former Nashville Predators players Wayne Simmonds and Joel Ward are joining the Hockey Diversity Alliance, which is being formed to “eradicate racism and inequality in hockey”.

Here’s the post from Simmonds on his social media account:

Both Simmonds and Ward will be on the alliance’s executive committee, while Evander Kane of the San Jose Sharks and Akim Aliu will be official leaders of the alliance.
