LOL: Minnesota's Hockey Team Says "Nah, Brah" to the NHL's Absurd LGBTQ Branding and Refuses to Wear The NHL-Mandated Rainbow Warmup Jerseys

The team is called the Minnesota Wild. I haven't followed hockey in forever. The previous Minnesota team was the North Stars, but they were lured to Dallas. (Are they still the North Stars? In Dallas?) Anyway, the Wild team was created a few years later.

The NHL has been on an absolutely leftwing virtue-signalling Identity Politics tear lately. They staged a tournament for transgender and nonbinary players, for example.

The National Hockey League sent a tweet on Tuesday morning supporting the Team Trans Draft Tournament in Middleton, Wisconsin, that took place over the weekend.

The tournament was the first that comprised of only transgender and nonbinary people, and around 80 players participated, the league said in the tweet. The NHL also added the hashtags #HockeyIsForEveryone and #NHLPride.

The original tweet about the tournament was met with both support and blacklash, including a tweet from @BlueMountain12 that was critical of the tournament.

"So, men playing on womans team?" the user tweeted.

The NHL responded to the criticism, doubling down on their support.

"Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Nonbinary identity is real."

"Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Nonbinary identity is real."

-- from National Hockey League official Rules of Play

The NHL Diversity Chief declared that "there are too many white people in hockey" and promised to "fix" the "problem."

According to the National Hockey League's diversity chief, there are just too many white people in the sport of hockey. She even commissioned a report to prove it. And by golly, she's going to get to the bottom of this atrocity and right to "fixing the problem."

You see, unlike the racially balanced sports of basketball, football, and track, hockey is a bastion of systemic racism that has led to an overrepresentation of white people. I mean, yeah, Canada and Russia, with their tiny black populations, are the meccas of the sport and provide most of its players, but that's no excuse. Truly, diversity can not be achieved until the urban neighborhoods of Miami are equally represented in a sport where you literally play on a sheet of ice.

And I get that the vast majority of black people would rather be playing basketball and football because those sports offer more scholarships, more popularity, and are more lucrative at the pro level. Still, we should force them into hockey like a square peg into a round hole anyway, punishing others in the process, because that's what diversity demands.


Isn't normalized racism grand? I mean, I know bagging on white guys is basically a national pastime at this point, but describing their existence as a "problem" that needs "fixing" seems a bit dramatic doesn't it?

I call upon all white men to help fix hockey's Whiteness Problem and stop watching hockey and stop buying tickets to hockey games. We're all in this together. George Floyd Forever.

The NHL mandated that every team show that #Hockeyisforeveryone by holding a "Pride Night" and forcing players to festoon themselves in Gay Flag Clothing.

The Minnesota Wild chose not to.

The Minnesota Wild hosted its second annual Pride Night on Tuesday against the Calgary Flames, but players had noticeably ditched the Pride-themed jerseys normally worn during warmups in what was reportedly an "organizational decision."

After previously advertising that the players would wear rainbow-colored jerseys in warmups that would be signed and auctioned off in support of the LGBTQIA+ community, players on the ice were only seen using rainbow-colored tape on their sticks and themed pucks before the game.

According to The Athletic, it was an "organizational decision" but a statement from the team before puck drop offered little clarity on the call.


"The Minnesota Wild organization is proud to continue our support for the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer/questioning, asexual) community by hosting our second annual pride night tonight which we are celebrating in many ways. It is important to host nights like this to show all players, fans, and the LGBTQIA+ community that hockey is for everyone."

According to the report, mention of the auction was also seemingly scrubbed from the team's website.

Wild players previously wore Pride-themed jerseys during Pride Night in 2022.

A few NHL players have resisted showing their league-mandated "Pride" before. A Philly Flyers defenseman refused to Wear the Gay Flag, citing his religious beliefs.

The NHL issued a statement at the time seemingly backing Provorov's decision, while adding that it will "continue to encourage their voices and perspectives on social and cultural issues."

"Clubs decide whom to celebrate, when and how -- with League counsel and support. Players are free to decide which initiatives to support, and we continue to encourage their voices and perspectives on social and cultural issues."

"League counsel and support." LOL.

The Rangers also chose to skip out on the "Pride" jerseys in January.

In related news, a former NBA player has spoken out against enforcing bizarre gender ideology on children.

Former NBA star Andrew Bogut pushed back on the far-left's effort to indoctrinate children with gender ideology, warning the trend will become a "detriment" to this generation of young children if it continues to spiral.

Bogut, who played most of his career for the Bucks and Warriors, joined "The Ingraham Angle" on Tuesday to discuss why he is speaking out against the radical gender "inclusivity" push after he tried to sign his 6-year-old son up for soccer, and to his disbelief, was offered four gender options instead of two.

"The biggest misnomer of our times is inclusive, to hear that word, it's not inclusive, these are six-year-old kids," Bogut told Laura Ingraham. "My wife actually signed up for it and screenshotted and sent it to me... Can we just let kids be kids?"

"When you're an adult, if you want to transition, or you want to do whatever you want to do sexually, I really don't care. It's not my business," he continued. "But when it's affecting children, you know that their brains haven't even close to fully formed yet. And as you said in your intro, it's baby steps, it's inches, inches of pushing this stuff."

Sad news: There's been a terrorist incident.

After watching BLM activists pull down statues and vandalize monuments for two years with zero prosecutions and not even the pretense of any investigations, the Regime and its Propaganda Media finally discovers a desecration it will not let stand: Someone drove over a Gay Pride Flag painted on the street and dared to leave tire marks on this Gay Pride Flag painted on the street.

How can we sleep knowing that their are Evil-Doers out there desecrating America's Flag??!!

There is about a minute of rhetoric from Matt Walsh before he plays the absolutely gonzo-hysterical "news" reports about someone leaving tire marks on a public road.
