A travelling exhibition from the Canadian Museum of History
The sweat-soaked smell of the locker room. The flick of the wrist shot. The screams of enthusiastic fans. For millions of Canadians, winter is synonymous with hockey – a sport integral to Canadian society. Hockey bring us together. It thrills us. It is part of our identity, our shared history. It is a passion handed down from generation to generation, a recreational activity and a commercial enterprise.
Hockey showcases the high points in the sport from both yesterday and today, and brings the history of the sport to life through profiles of participants at both the professional and amateur levels.
