When Jack Lanaham approaches Saul about the possibility of playing in the NHL, Saul tries to reject him by saying something about the nature of hockey. What does he say and do you believe it’s true?

Saul talks about hockey as a white man's sport that will not accept him. Unfortunately, during that era, I feel Saul is right. The crowds and the press do not accept Saul as a player: he is an Indian player. Being an Indian player invites countless racial slurs and even plastic figurines hurled at him.
