Bobrovsky had no issues wearing the jersey in Florida. Russian. Goes back home during the summer.



The Russian threat thing is just a made up excuse because they don't wanna get roasted for saying it's their religion.

There's already enough to cry about as a Canucks fan. No need to cry about players wearing a jersey or not.

They can just have every player wear a different color.... Together it's a rainbow, individually you're just wearing a different colored jersey. Guys who don't care for it can wear white, blue, or green.

While we're add it remove all that military bullshit they do in the States as well at games.

No I don't need to be told to give a standing ovation to some infantry dude during intermission.

Actually. If you think about all the pro leagues in the States and all the game opening season flyby for each team, they can save a shit ton of money. Lol.

That shit is marketing gold for them, some kid in buttfuck Wisconsin sees those jets and signs up at the military office in town the next day, gets shipped out to who knows where to further the motherland's financial interests.

Bigtime worth it for them.

Fuck all these politics in hockey and sports in general. I just want to see highlights and achievements. If I want to read about politics, I'd buy a newspaper or go to a specific subreddit.

Every time I read an Ovechkin thread on reddit, someone has to bring up that he's Putin's lap dog. Like fuck off dude, I just wanna see his goal or how close he is to Gretzky's record.

Now it's all this shit about LGBTQ whatever the fuck extra letters you want to add (it seems like there's a new one every week) theme nights that the organizations are trying to push to sell more merchandise.

I think the pride jerseys are a pretty big example of the actual NHL as a corporate entity virtue signalling, but that said, if you are too homophobic to wear a fucking rainbow on your shirt for 6 minutes because "Jesus told you not to" it's really not as brave as the incel comments section on FB would like to give you credit for.
It's the "all lives matter" crew all over again.

I mean it's not news that people all over the world are still not ok with people being gay. I don't see how "just wear the jersey man" does anything to fix that.

I have no problem with whoever doing whatever they want to do, but I wouldn't want someone telling me I have to wear something to support their cause or else I look like a homophobe.

Well if you say, I'm not participating in that because I don't agree with it, sorry for the bad news, but you are a homophobe.
I'm not going to the store to pick up a rainbow costume, but if someone says, hey man, can you wear this to show support for a marginalized group since you are getting paid millions as a public figure? Yeah, I totally can. It's not that fucking hard.

^unless your family is in Russia and Putin will have them executed for showing such support.

Blanket statements do not apply here, unfortunately.

He's being paid millions to put a puck in the net. Not every sports player signed up to be the poster boy of some social injustice and it's a little ridiculous to expect people to just shut up and go along with it if they don't agree with it.

I'm not religious by any means, I think it's a ridiculous thing to believe in myself but you're not 'winning' by forcing someone to wear a jersey for something they don't agree with.

Keep this shit out of sports. If Kuzy gets into politics and wants to start changing our laws then I'll start to give a fuck.

Everyone has freedom of expression! It's a universal human right! We should be allowed to wear what we want!

Wait, why are you not wearing that rainbow jersey? You must be a raging homophobe! Fuck you!

My Jesus statement was more based on the Reimer and Stall dipshits.
And to the the people saying, you can do what you want, I agree, you totally can, but when you do it, people will take what they will from it. Freedom of speech is still here, the NHL isn't putting them in jail for it.
