        And colorful tape didn’t have to be political either. Banning shit like that, or pride, blm, or any other non-hate based messaging is fucking ridiculous.

            That’s also annoying, but it’s not as widespread anymore as the pride stuff.

              How can you possibly say that? There are literal temples in the US with crosses all over them. These temples, in some cases, have crosses made of gold.

              Are you out of your mind, bro?

        Yes, for the love of fucking god. Not because national anthems are political, that’s one of the dunbest things that’s been said in this thread, but because they’re an annoying waste of time. I wanna watch the sport, stop singing weirdo’s.

          Many national anthems are fairly radical political manifestos.

          Just because they’ve been put to some music and we’ve gotten used to them doesn’t make them any less radical.

          It’s funny to think that statements like “arise, children of the fatherland, against the bloody flag of tyranny” or “O Lord our God arise, scatter our enemies and make them fall!” or “Let’s unite, we’re ready to die! For centuries we’ve been stamped on and laughed at because we’re not one people” should be completely okay and everybody should stand and listen in awe, but “black lives matter” would be too radical and too political for the same setting.

      Idk in a game that has historically had issues with sexual assault and hazing and enough people speaking out about not feeling welcome, don’t you think it’s kind of important to address in one way or another? It’s making noise because it’s going against the status quo. NHL made a decision based on the beliefs of like 10 players vs the rest of the league who supported pride nights.

      You realize the tape was the result of research that showed that hockey was the least homosexual friendly sport to play, right?

      It’s supposed to be for everyone, but then they get angry at you if you’re gay.

        Least homosexual sport is a bunch of shit mate. What, you gonna perform worse if you’re gay? If you play the game and keep your sexuality to yourself like everyone else I doubt there’s an issue.

          So all the straight players never mention their wives, girlfriends, or sexual conquests to their teammates? They just keep that to themselves? Bullshit. Straight people are never told to “keep their sexuality to themselves.”

                The fucking enemy lol. I’m not supporting anyone, I just don’t feel like having all the bullshit mixed in with literally everything. Not everything is so black and white, you weirdo

                  And some things are black and white. If you think banning expression to acknowledge that entire population of people exists is a good thing, you’re a homophobe. Quit being a triggered snowflake. We get it, you’re uncomfortable with gay people. Stfu and move along.

        It would be nice if the NHL would have an list of approved tapes. And the approval process was really quick and painless, just to keep out tape with swastikas or whatnot.

          No let them do tape with shit like that, so the teams can fire them and they out themselves.

          It’s okay if rainbow tape is your fetish. Definitely nothing wrong with your asshole throbbing any time you see someone supporting gay rights. Don’t be ashamed!

        You don’t have to play sports to know this is a stupid rule. If you weren’t a goon you would know that.

      It’s not even for during game time, it’s during warmups. It affects nothing allowing whatever tape (or jerseys) they want.
