The NHL further cementing its reputation as the least LGBTQ friendly major professional sports league after a whopping seven players didn't want to wear optional pride jerseys during warmups last season. Literally rolling over to keep a handful of bigots happy. Disgusting.
Sounds like some of the Russian players were scared of reprisals (or at least said as much).
This isn't the direction I would have taken in response, though.
