Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov did the unspeakable and declined to wear an “LGBT Pride” warm-up jersey and wrap his stick in rainbow-colored tape to honor all the gay and trans folks showing up at a recent hockey game, and the commies’ response is so entertaining I just might cancel my cable.
Provorov’s reason for defying the pink lords? He chose to remain true to his Russian Orthodox religion.
“I respect everybody’s choices,” Provorov stated when the game was over. “My choice is to stay true to myself and my religion. That’s all I’m going to say.”
Some bolshies have called for Provorov to be benched. Another wants him fired. Yet another suggested he “go back to where he came from” (Russia) and fight Ukraine.
A guy I’ve never heard of on a TV show I’ve never seen simpered that the Flyers should be fined $1 million because Provorov has a pair and dared not surrender to the battle harpies from the planet Uranian.
Provorov’s own agent claimed this wayward refusal to bend a knee to the Gaystapo proves the league isn’t a “safe environment” for the apparent legions of trans-pansexual players who want to “come out.”
An ESPN lickspittle filled his non-binary under panties and claimed there would be outrage if a player refused to wear a warmup jersey honoring the military, somehow forgetting there isn’t a transgender force patrolling Canada’s Northwest Territories in sub-zero temperatures.
Brad Polumbo, the openly gay co-founder of BasedPolitics, is on Team Provorov.

>> did the unspeakable
actually, did the “unspeakable” as it’s totally speakable.
Why do they refer to him as a bolshevik? Russia is no longer communist.
Meh. Hockey has sold out to the woke. They need to repudiate their past behavior before I’ll tune in again.
I was at a political training meeting the Saturday when a lot of SEC positions were determined. People need to get with the program, give up the sportyball crap and get to work.
Provorov should fire his agent Monday at 9 AM
I believe this has been posted a few times over the last couple of days, so be it. I understand that this players NHL official jersey is totally sold out unless you’re little people who needs an extra small Jersey. These go for over $100 bucks. Good to hear.
They’re actually more free than we are, if you can believe it.
As I understand it “bolshie” is British slang for obnoxious people who get angry easily. The article was calling Provorov’s critics bolshies, not him.
Democrats are extremely tolerant of people the agree with.
So is Mr. Prorovov the only Christian in the NHL? Not seeing the others lining up in support.
seems to be the only one on that team anyways- either that or if there are others on the team, they are cowards selling out to moral deviancy in order to keep their jobs
They value their overpaid jobs more. They know what would happen if they did. It may not happen right away but this players days in the NHL are numbered.
NHL no longer has straight written all over it after their pride campaign.
