Gary Bettman Issues A Terrible Statement Regarding Pride Night

NEWS: The NHL sent an updated memo to teams Thursday clarifying what they can do this season with special initiatives such as Pride Night.

A source told ESPN that several teams sought clarity as the first memo was deemed to be confusing and restrictive.

"Players shall not be put in the position of having to demonstrate (or where they may be appearing to demonstrate) personal support for any Special Initiatives. A factor that may be considered in this regard includes, for example, whether a Player (or Players) is required to be in close proximity to any groups or individuals visibly or otherwise clearly associated with such Special Initiative(s)"

Flabbergasted that someone at the NHL typed up that first memo and no one, not even their legal department, was like hey.. maybe we shouldn't straight up green-light discrimination like this.

just when you thought these people couldn't get any worse 😬
