say they will continue their efforts surrounding 'Hockey is for Everyone' nights at games next season, despite the NHL's decision to ban themed jerseys for warmups, after several players and teams declined to participate for certain themes last season.would no longer have players skate in separate themed jerseys for warmups
Ivan Provorov of the Philadelphia Flyers, James Reimer of the San Jose Sharks, and Marc and Eric Stahl of the Florida Panthers were among a fairly small group of players that declined to participate while citing religious reasons. Afterward, a few teams – including the Chicago Blackhawks and New York Rangers – elected against wearing the Pride jerseys collectively.
The theme nights themselves will remain for the teams to host and players themselves will be free to model any themed jerseys teams could still create. However, they just won't be utilized on the ice.
