Whitecloud honors culture in chasing Golden Knights dream

The significance is not lost on Zach Whitecloud, his ethnicity hardly an immense part of NHL history and yet such is a force that drives him up and down a sheet of ice.

“You don’t see many First Nation hockey players,” he said. “But my parents raised me to believe I can do anything with the right mindset and work ethic.

“I’ve wanted this for as long as I can remember.”

Development camp for the Golden Knights concluded with a final scrimmage Saturday at City National Arena, where an All-Star game broke out and Team White beat Team Grey 11-6.
