National Hockey League (NHL) teams will no longer wear rainbow-colored LGBTQ-themed jerseys during pregame warmups for Pride nights.
NHL Pride Nights became a hot topic of conversation earlier this year when Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov refused to participate in his team’s Pride Night due to his orthodox Christian faith, sparking outrage from leftists who proceeded to accuse him of bigotry and homophobia. However, the Philadelphia Flyers kept him in the lineup, and the team even went on to win the game against the Anaheim Ducks.

Just how did the powers of the NHL ever think this was a good idea?

Smart move. Offending the 99% to pander to 0.01% is not smart business.
Check with Anheiser-Busch about that.

Let them be outraged. They are not entitled to override people’s religious beliefs. They would have had nothing to say if the player was Muslim.

That should be a capital "O" in Orthodox Christian faith. It is the second-largest Christian body worldwide. The Orthodox Church believes in the Faith that Jesus gave to the Apostles, once and for all people in the world. "Evolving doctrine" has never been accepted in the Orthodox Church because it is antithetical to the received Faith.

Why do they even have "pride nights"? Pride about what? Idiots.

Big hockey fan too and will continue to watch when I can. They are showing some backbone and not kowtowing anymore (at least for now) to the radical, perversion crowd.
And thank heavens as hockey is, in my view, the greatest professional team sport in the world.

If you have to shout "pride, pride pride" in every venue, it seems to me that perhaps they are secretly ashamed of what they do. As the story says, "The Lady Doth Protest too much". As most of us here are not anti-homosexual. It's been part of human nature and always will be. It's when they cram it in our faces and want to groom our children to be gay recruits that they have crossed the line. 6% percent of the population (gay) and less than 1% (trans) are about to reap the whirlwind.

Easy to say right now considering the season is over until next time. Bettman is a weasel as a commissioner IMO, I have never had any respect for him. I don't trust guys who like to blow hot air up my skirts and pretend they are saying something useful.

Who was dumb enough (or pervert enough) to think that the idea of men sucking on an other mans' penis was something for which to be proud ?

Yeah. Gay pride month. A whole month for gay boys and one day day for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died for us including my ggg grandfather who woho was killed by the British during the siege of Augusta in 1780. It’s despicable and and I will never buy another product from a company that celebrates this gay crep.

Expanding upon my other post, #5, the concept of "evolving doctrine" bends Christian doctrine to the fashions of the world, rather than holding steadfast to the doctrines taught by the Apostles. Compromise with the world is the reason that many "progressive" Christian churches are losing members.
So, of course a believing Christian will eschew sexual perversions, and the "pride" in them.

Thank you #5. Yes we may not be as vocal as many in the US but we Orthodox take our faith seriously and will not bend the knee.
Lord have mercy and bless all those who bless the name of our Lord Jesus.

God bless Ivan Provorov and other Christian athletes who will take a stand. It is the only way.

There are only five more days in this month, and "pride" had already gotten old on June 1. "Pride Month" seems a deliberate affront to our Lord, and to morality. Let's cancel this "month" next year. This has all gone way too far.

If a person can listen to the testimonies of children who have been abused by parents, relatives, teachers, coaches, priests or other categories of pedophiles and can still be proud of any sort of immoral, deviant sexual activity then they are as sick as the predators. The corporate leaders who push this trash on the public are either deviates themselves or think that they will see bigger profits by catering to this small, mentally ill segment of the population. Whatever the motivation, their businesses deserve to fail.

What this particular article barely mentions is that the NHL is doing away with all pregame special themed jerseys including military and cancer awareness. Having all the pride stuffed down our throats so to speak costs other organizations as well. Like with the Dodgers screwing the pooch with the Sisters of Perpetual whatever what is it about these large organizations and the corporations having such a tin ear to their actual paying customers?
