Connor McDavid and several other players share their stance on the Ivan Provorov fiasco
The National Hockey League has put a lot of effort in making hockey a game for everyone. They've been a big supporter of the LGTBQ2+ community and teams have jumped onboard and have nights like the Philadelphia Flyers did the other night.
Only problem was, not every player was onboard with supporting the cause. Ivan Provorov refused to take warm-ups in a pride jersey and it has set the internet on fire!
But Provorov obviously does not respect «everyone». If he did respect everyone, he would have taken part in warm-up and worn the Pride Night jersey. Don't hide behind religion. https://t.co/Qk6dTgAnmP� Pierre LeBrun (@PierreVLeBrun) January 18, 2023
This had led to a lot of speculation, debates and fights amongst people online, and a few players in the National Hockey League were asked their opinions on Provorov's actions:
