NHL's Pride Tape Ban Sparks Controversy
Former NHL executive Brian Burke has sharply criticized the league's decision to ban players from using rainbow tape. Burke called the ban a 'serious setback' for the NHL, stating that it sends the wrong message to the LGBTQ+ community. The Pride tape initiative was created to show support for the LGBTQ+ community and promote inclusivity in hockey.
Support for LGBTQ+ Community
The NHL's decision to ban the use of Pride tape has sparked controversy among players, fans, and advocates for LGBTQ+ rights. Many see the ban as a step backward in the fight for inclusivity and acceptance in the sports world. It remains to be seen how the league will respond to the backlash and whether they will reconsider their stance on the use of Pride tape.
