It’s been a long time coming, but the recognition is more than welcomed by Danny Hodgson.
The 57-year-old is one of eight former Indigenous NHL players who are a part of the Upper Deck First Peoples Rookie Cards set, released Jan. 13.
“I didn't really think too much about it honestly at the start, but now that I'm really wrapping my head around it, it is quite something with all the work that I've seen put in and what it really actually means now, to actually have a hockey card. I kind of get little goosebumps, honestly.
"Every single player in this set has had a lot of major accomplishments during their hockey careers and are continuing to have success in their post-hockey careers.“Part of it was really the pandemic. … We've faced so many shortages on materials supplies,” said Upper Deck senior marketing manager Paul Nguyen. “So for us to build this type of set, we've really had to work to make sure that this was done correctly … and timing wise, like when can we release it.
