I continue to be astonished by the fact that actions are being taken as a result of the investigation after being continuously assured NOTHING would happen. Just can’t believe it

Dude it's not me saying it, it's the dictionary, but you make your own conclusions.


"The San Jose Sharks are believed to be the first NHL team to host a Pride-themed game, when they hosted an “LGBT Night” on March 30, 2011, against the Dallas Stars."

But yet over a decade later, everyone is just now woke?

- Flyerz74

No you misunderstand. Pride night is not woke. The nhl’s reaction to pride night fiasco was woke.

It’s an illogical reaction to cancel pride night things like jersey because 1 guy wants to exercise HIS RIGHT to not wear the jersey. Who gives a (frank) about the 1 guy? Exercising his right? It’s a nothing burger. The ACTION of nhl is the problem and woke. They were woke that this brought attention they didn’t want that was illogical.

The logical thing would’ve been to continue as always as simple state that they both support players and pride night and decision to wear pride jersey (or whatever) and ALSO support players right to NOT wear jersey.

The word "ignorant" already exists.
- shekkie

Ignorant doesn’t mean action. It’s not only the thought process being illogical more importantly it’s the actions.

DB's presser was good, I do believe what he is saying, not making any moves at TDL to make a run, not going to make trades to make trades, they will see what the market offers. Asked "trading someone from the room, are you concerned the room will see that as not supporting them", DB, I am not everybody knows where we are as a franchise, all moves will be made with an eye towards to the future.

I understand what you mean to a point.

However, I don't think wokism or the term, applies to this situation at all.

- MBFlyerfan

I’ll admit I tend to throw that word around kinda loosely. What I meant more or less was in regards to how the whole situation was already dealt with involving players.

The investigation into hockey Canada is and should be completely SEPERATE issue. Yet it’s not and is a side note now and makes zero sense. It should be the other way around. An enigma within an enigma this whole thing is.

CBC did a deep dive into the allegations. It's worth the watch:

Again , what’s woke about the current situation with these five players? Go ahead. Tell me how they’ve been railroaded by pride night woke freaks in the London Ontario Police.

Very smart guy here. How’s your DeAngelo jersey??

- FloHaake

The only way I can explain it to simplistic terms is the logical rage into Canada hockey was use of slush funds and the arrogance when caught….

The. Investigation into that being illogically turned and focused on player incident that was already dealt with to the satisfaction of the victim who wants no part in this investigation.

Prediction time. Does Frost get to 50 points this year? He has 22 right now with 35 games left.

I think he will.

- mickel25

I think he will. He is a man on a mission lately. I'm still shocked I saw him throwing his body and checking last night

when they were referring to MM it was an older guy pouring shots down EM's throat, that's what I was referring to. Tomahawk posted the video.
