NHL Teams Furious After Memo From the League on Pride

The NHL were once proud supporters of Pride Night around the league, but after players like Ivan Provorov and James Reimer openly came out against them a year ago, its been a major issue ever since.

For some reason, the NHL allowing these nights has come under major scrutiny since that point, and in order to get ahead of that in 2023-24, they came out and released a memo to all 32 teams, but it wasn't received well.

This all comes from a reputable source at ESPN in Ryan S. Clark.

Now, here is a transcript of the confusing part of the memo, and it's safe to say it's understandable why teams were confused and annoyed at the league.

At this point, no one is sure what is happening with specialty nights around the league, and it appears the NHL are in the same boat, so this is something for fans to keep a close eye on as the 2023-24 season approaches.
