Philadelphia Flyers Player Boycotts His Woke Team’s “Pride Night,” Refuses To Wear Their LGBTQ Warmup Jersey

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov, a devout Russian Orthodox Christian, refused to wear his team’s gay pride jersey Tuesday night. He explained that he made a choice to stay true to himself and his faith.

As my home town team I can tell you for sure they’ve black highly popular players than virtually any NHL team. His religion is very clear on the gay thing and if you don’t like that take it up with them. @SW-User
