Master Mind Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 13 minutes ago, MeanSeanBean said: To an extent? Yeah I don't agree with that. It's fine to concider the complexity of a situation, but a person should be judged on their words and actions. In Provs case he's being judged on the information provided and his own words, which was relegion. I think it would be unreasonable to start over analyzing something based on hypotheticals, but you do you. Kuzmenkos situation should be reviewed independently, and so far the reason given was family concerns. If he does start pushing the spotlight onto himself tonight, or changes his tune to relegion I may change my opinion as well. But for now, while I think it's a shame, I understand Kuzmenkos concern about protecting his family. It's evident that the leadership in Russia is capable of horrific war crimes, so who knows what danger a player could be in if they acted or spoke out of line. I have made my opinion on this clear, if you are opting out due to religious reasons I think that's unacceptable. I recognize that the situation becomes far more complicated when Russia is involved. If you were judging purely on words, you would also have to consider when these players say they love/support everyone. Yet the assumption is still that these players are hateful. So clearly there is always some overanalyzing happening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFaithfulCap Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Myers on the 2nd pp too. Maybe they are just going to let him run loose and cause net chaos ("imagine you're placing defence for them!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been very clear and repeatedly said I don't believe that hate drives the religious disagreement towards the LGTBQ community, it's pity. If you choose to ignore that for a gotcha because you need a win, fill your boots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole team doing it, Quinn speaking publically about its importance, the awesome jerseys, those are all fantastic and should be recognized. But addressing a situation like this isn't searching for a negative, it's just not burying your head in the sand. Who's burying their head in the sand? Is the organization/entire team other than Kuzmenko doing it? Yes. So they are acknowledging it and celebrating it but everyone wants to focus on one player. Ya that sure is burying their head in the sand. Edited March 31, 2023 by Canuckfanforlife82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 So Hronek is shut down for the season? Considering he's played already I imagine he would be fine to finish the year, but it can't hurt our tank so maybe that's playing apart aswell. Not a bad decision.

Nucker 67 Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Why don't they just healthy scratch all of the players that don't want to wear the warmup jersey? It's not like they need Kuzmenko because it's a must win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was raised methodist but has changed his ways when it realized how stupid feeling pity towards others is, and now fully supports the LGTBQ community and pride events. mennonite not methodist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aznmonk Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Hronek is out for the season. Hope they add new blood to the lineup. Hirose to the lineup and burn the flames with a goal and 4 assist!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDonough is a younger player who'll be a longer term project than Kravstov. He's almost certainly going to be in Abby. I don't get the Kravstov slander. He needs to work on his conditioning clearly but has shown the tools to be a player. He just got here, they should keep working with him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
