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


The NHL over the past year has made a concerted effort to portray itself as America’s most woke sports league, even at the expense of player safety. On Tuesday night, however, an NHL player actually decided to take a stand against his own team’s effort to push the woke agenda.

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.

Yes sir. Good for him to simply be himself.
@jackjjackson I hope the sports guy (reporter I’m guessing) who said he ( the hockey player)should go back to Russia, gets terminated, unless those he works for also feel that way too and condone such comments.
The player stood up for his beliefs, and many are beside themselves over that.
