Quite frankly, I think 80% of fans couldn’t care less.

Ol Bozo Bettman at it again.
I’ve never seen another large sports entity make spontaneous decisions without consulting these unions and coalitions BEFORE making the initial decision.

What a bold stance. 👏👏👏

Can’t wait until a player sports some confederate flag tape and the NHL finally has to take a firm stance for or against bigotry…

Now have the « option »?
Players always had the option, they’d just pay for it.

I swear this is so obviously a clown show that this has to be an attempt at distracting us from something else.

It’s almost like that should have been the rule all along.

People who support pride gear being allowed are not ALL radlibs. If some bigot doesn’t want to wear a pride jersey, I don’t care. I just know they’re a bigot and my opinion of them might be a little different but the same could be said about the bigots when they see their favorite players donning pride tape willingly. Quit listening to the loud ass complainers and just do whatever you fucking want lmao

And to think the cure for racism was tape on the end of a hockey stick. All of our problems have been magically solved.

God forbid we just play hockey and people of all sorts can just watch the game we love without anything else.

I’m confused, did they not talk to them the first time?

“There’s no way we could have foreseen banning support of social causes using tape would give us so much grief. I mean hockey is for everyone, especially bigots and homophobes. Anyways. Go tape yourself.”

Nobody in professional sports trips over their own dicks as badly and as often as the NHL.
The league is its own worst enemy.

Ovi with a Z or someone rocking Trump 45 tape… what’s the next controversy?

This is the right move, and should have always been the rule. You can show support for whatever you want, but aren’t forced to or not to.

And you didn’t think to consult with those groups before making that decision? Very good, very smart league.
