Was just surfing over on TSN.
Tampa Bay goaltender Gerald Coleman, of Romeoville, Ill., will become the first NHL Diversity program player to dress for an NHL.
Coleman was introduced to hockey through an NHL Diversity program, the Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois Diversity Program, formerly Chicago P.U.C.K. He was the program's representative at the 1997 Willie O'Ree All-Star Game in Chicago and returned as an alumni coach in 2001, when Tampa Bay hosted the event. Coleman also participated in USA Hockey's Under-18 National Team Development Program in Ann Arbor, Mich.
A really good feel good story!

Coleman got in the game last night against Atlanta and allowed only one break away goal. I think it was on Hossa.. I don't quite remember, but he didn't look out of place.
