‘Shameful!’: Flyers’ Ivan Provorov Called a ‘Homophobe’ for Refusing to Wear Pride Night Jersey

Warner Todd Huston 18 Jan 2023

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov is being assailed as a “homophobe” for refusing to wear a jersey for the team’s gay pride event.

The 26-year-old hockey pro skipped warmups before Tuesday night’s game because he refused to wear the gay pride jersey the team sponsored for its gay pride night game. He cited his Russian Orthodox religion as his reason for skipping the team’s obeisance to the LGBTQ agenda.

“I respect everybody and I respect everybody’s choices,” he said after the game. “My choice is to stay true to myself and my religion. That’s all I’m going to say.”

I hope he sticks to his guns. It's so tiring when someone stands up to the woke mob, but then is forced to retreat, whimpering and apologizing for having offended anyone.

I hope he sticks to his beliefs as well.  Rod Dreher had a short blog post on Ivan today:  https://www.theamericanconservative.com/ivan-provorov-lives-not-by-lies/

Jerseys for Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov have sold out online days after the 26-year-old refused to wear a gay pride-themed jersey for religious reasons.

Both NHL Shop and Fanatics have listed Provorov's jerseys as "almost gone," and there are no longer any men's jerseys with his name and number available.



On Fanatics, the defenseman is listed as having the most popular men's jersey, women's jersey, and sweatshirt, and his Branded Backer shirt is being advertised as the most popular seller related to the Philadelphia Flyers, according to the online store.

If he wanted to support gays he would have played soccer.
