In a remarkable reaction to a foreign country's anti-LGBTQ+ policies, the Chicago Blackhawks, an NHL team, abandoned plans for players to wear Pride-themed jerseys during warm-ups this Sunday at the team's Pride Night celebration, citing security concerns for three players with ties to Russia.The Chicago Tribune reported sources with the team say the Blackhawks didn't want to risk "any media" depicting the Russians in Pride Night colors, which would put the players in conflict with official Russian government policy.
