[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 1155944, member: 73648"] It’s sad cause hockey was the first American sport to really embrace pride. Players were showing up to pride parade and the you can play project was started by nhl front office members. Players have voiced their frustration. The player base is split between Eastern European, nordics, and then suburban and rural North Americans. Some players come from areas where lgbt+ acceptance is not popular. Basically a few stars refused to participate in pride nights and everything fell apart. Lots of players still support “you can play” and pride nights but the league taking away their expression when they had no issue with players backing out of pride nights is going to sting. [/QUOTE]
