what the actual fuck. like. actually. this would say that players who are not comfortable with the lgbtq+ community are more important than the lgbtq+ community: this is saying homophobia is welcome within the game of hockey. this is saying we are not meant to be here.

The fact that the NHL is forbidding pride tape in games, warm-ups qnd practices is sickening. It’s not about giving the players who want to take part in it a chance - it’s silencing queer voices, and it’s protecting homophobes and transphobes. It’s clear where the NHL stands.

I’m a queer artist who works in hockey - it’s tough, I’m not going to sugarcoat it. However, I’ve been able to do queer work for multiple hockey teams - this is my way of saying that we belong here, and that you cannot get rid of us. This is the pride work I’ve done so far <3
