What is DTBL?
Defending The Blue Line (DTBL) is a non-profit group that was founded by a group of military service members from Minnesota. The foundation's mission is to keep military kids playing hockey, no matter what types of obstacles they may face, such as a parents deployment. DTBL accomplishes that goal by providing free hockey equipment to military kids (courtesy of the NHLPA), grants to help with association fees, summer hockey camps, and unique experiences such as sending military families to a MN Wild game.
