San Jose sharks are so embarrassing. 3 players decline to participate in pride night, with one releasing a statement he is a Christian who believes in bible and can’t support that lifestyle.

Put on that military Jersey without shame though, you POS

also believe he’s played games on Sunday as cherry-picking what to follow like all the other fake, piece of shit Christians

I'm sure they justify wars because they must read God kills bad people, and wars are good against bad. Who cares if both sides think they are "good" and the other side "bad".

Killing another person is clearly not as bad as your neighbor is married to a person of the same sex, apparently.
 
So glad the a-la-cart Christian has an issue with homosexuality but no problem with working on the sabbath.

Can we hold a public stoning to kill him for those Sunday games, or is his .895 sv% death enough?

Hey go easy on Reimer, with an .895 SV% apparently this is the only thing he successfully stopped.
 
Fanatics will become the official uniform supplier of the NHL for ten years beginning in 2024.

Honestly I didn’t even realize they made things. I thought they were just a giant retailer.

They started "making" their own things in the same way Kirkland is slapped on other companies products. The retail jerseys were already Fanatics branded (and I think they may have taken over or worked in conjunction with Adidas for thst).

And they make their own hats as well (competed against or won the bid for MLB from New Era).


I ordered three times from them for MLB stuff, and my order was right only once (and that was only because it was one item).



I wonder how this will affect every other league because none of them have any dealings with Fanatics.

I’m seeing a lot of complaints about poor quality.

I doubt this changes much for the other leagues. The NFL will be too expensive, the NBA will be with someone who sells shoes so Nike or Adidas, MLS is locked in with Adidas (and Adidas needs MLS as it’s entry point into the US market), MLB might go with them but MLB doesn’t move the needle as much.

Classic NHL “go with the biggest number consequences be darned” move.
 
Russia and Belarus teams were excluded by the International Ice Hockey Federation on Wednesday from all its world championships next season, including the women's event in the United States.

While the IOC keeps saying those countries will be allowed. This is going to make for an interesting "showdown."
 
Blackhawks announce they're not going to let their players wear pride jerseys for warm-ups, cite "Russian Law" and safety concerns for their "Russian players." (Plural).

Per Mark Lazerus, Blackhawks beat writer for The Athletic:
The Blackhawks will not wear their Pride jerseys on Sunday, per team sources.

Safety concerns over Russia’s anti-LGBTQ “propaganda” law are behind the team decision not to wear the jerseys, sources say.

I’m told this was an organizational decision, and didn’t come from the players.

The Blackhawks called all their “community partners” that are going to be a part of Pride night, and while there was obvious disappointment in the decision not to have (let?) the players wear the Pride jerseys, they all “understand,” per team sources.

Nikita Zaitsev, Philipp Kurashev and Anton Khudobin all have Russian heritage, so the team’s security officials made the call.

They have *One* Russian player on the active roster: Khudobin was born in Kazakhstan. Kurashev is from Switzerland. Zaitsev is the only one from Russia, and is from Moscow. You're telling me Putin's goon squad is gonna go round up Khudobin's grandmother and an uncle and execute them because of the fabric someone wore for 15 minutes half a world away?

Man, imagine back in the cold war if we bowed down to some soviet law. There would be congressional investigations and black booking tons of people for that. The NHL is pretty lame.

It’s pretty clear they’re using it as a cover for bigotry. The sad part is that many media outlets are buying it hook, line, and sinker.
