So not sure what the wearing of a warmup jersey has to do with Canuck Place, Canucks for Cancer, Canucks for Autism, etc. The Canucks raise money for all those causes in many different ways. There's nights for these charities. Not just off the ice but usually game jerseys' have a logo for the event. Like Hockey Fights Cancer. Once again Rememberence Day, and other nights have practice jersey's. Various holidays and cultural events have special jerseys. Like for First Nations etc? So those are gone too? Seems to me like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wouldn't need to have a night celebrating anyone's sexual preference if it were not for the many homephobes out there. Just like we wouldn't need Black history month if it were not for the many racists out there. But seeing as there are people still hold their hatred as a badge of honour, we must persist with efforts to bring into focus the plight of marginalized communities. Personally I have never been persecuted as a heterosexual man so I don't see the need for it, but if you have had a different experience then you are free to create your own "night". In general though past efforts to create such a night have gone quite poorly, it tends to draw all sorts of weirdos (incels, misogynists etc.) so I would personally avoid it like the plague. 1 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe a game jersey that is worn in the game is different than a warmup jersey that is worn in warmup, don't you think? I'm pretty sure they can put those patches on actual games jerseys and sell them to raise money. Yes, ALL warmup jerseys will be gone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sapper Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 This is exactly why it was so wrong for those opting out- they have successfully canceled something that the majority supported Social media is already flush with people claiming victory and cheering the nhl for taking something back that was apparently lost Very disappointing 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabychStache Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Good. Was Gimmicky anyway, seemed like a cash grab to sell a few sweaters. Now just bring back the Skate jersey full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 A few decades back B.C. Ferries put out a half page add in the Province/Sun newspaper saying they were getting rid of the violent video games from their arcades. This was because they had received 12 complaints. They carry 21 million people a year, so they changed things to suit approximately .000005% of their ridership. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson-JH Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 At first I thought maybe it’s because this is Adidas final season for supplying jerseys to the NHL, before switching over to Shitantics. But, this is a different reasoning… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
