I was as shocked as everyone else when the ban originally happened, but this felt inevitable.

This rule was never going to be enforceable, and would only create more bad media for the league. Very glad they went ahead and walked it back quickly, hockey is for everyone and players should be able to represent that however they want!

This whole situation should have just been settled with making the warmup jerseys optional for the players. That way none of the bigots would feel uncomfortable supporting non-bigotry and the league wouldn’t provide the bigots cover for the bigots to not draw attention to their bigotry.

This was the right decision.

This was such a weird call to begin with. I’m not sure how they expected it to work out. Glad it was walked back.

Good for the NHL.
