Harnarayan Singh, M.S.M.
Calgary, Alberta

In 2008, Harnarayan Singh made Canadian history by becoming the first Punjabi-speaking commentator to call the play-by-play on Hockey Night in Canada: Punjabi Edition. He has since appeared on six English-language NHL broadcasts, working as a host in English and doing play-by-play in Punjabi. Through his work, he has connected the Canada's South Asian-Canadian community with our quintessential Canadian hockey experience.
