I am accessing the NHL tv streaming site geoblocked from a country who has limited interest in hockey (hence no fighting amongst SN, ESPN, etc.). However I have been finding free streaming to be as reliable and, sometimes, better quality.

Trying to access all games has been a nightmare to do through official companies. How's your experience been?

It is not politics if you are inclusive. This is a basic right. Also, the NHL has had the “you can play” program for years but in the end a little pushback means it was just PR crap.

Whatever you think the colors mean, they are a political symbol to others. Displaying political symbols when being paid as part of your job is commonly disallowed and is not limited to rainbow flags.

So I guess then they should also cancel military jerseys, cancer awareness events, singing anthems,… right?

Seriously. I don’t know how we got to a point where treating people with dignity is a divisive political issue. Backwards bizzarro world. Inclusivity shouldn’t be a political decision and publicly praising the military will always be political by definition.

The folks who say they dont support pride tape or kneeling during the anthem solely because it’s political are usually making bad faith arguments to mask their own bigotry. Nobody cared that players were kneeling until they asked why. They’re also the type to have no problem with military flyovers or putting a blue line on the flag, which, by flag code definition, is desecration. The “politics” argument is blatantly hypocritical.
