The NHL has found itself at the center of a heated online debate over the past few days after announcing a ban on pride tape, which players previously wore in support of the LGBTQ+ community. While the decision has stirred controversy, it has also inspired players to take a stand and show their support.

One such player who isn't shying away from this issue is Philadelphia Flyers' forward Scott Laughton. In response to the ban, Laughton made a bold statement, saying, "You'll probably see me with the pride tape on that night anyway."
Laughton's words reflect a determination to stand up for what he believes in and send a message of inclusivity. It's a reminder that players in the NHL, like Laughton, are not afraid to use their platform to advocate for positive change.
As the debate surrounding the ban continues, it's clear that the conversation around inclusivity and acceptance in the NHL is far from over, and players like Laughton are ready to be at the forefront of this important dialogue.
In light of the NHL's policy against wearing pride tape, Scott Laughton's commitment to wearing it anyway is a bold and principled stand. If he follows through on this promise, he may face a significant fine, although as a millionaire, the financial penalty is unlikely to deter his stance.
