Huge Turnaround on Pride Tape Ban
Elliotte Friedman, the renowned insider, reported that the NHL, NHLPA, and NHL Player Inclusion Coalition have agreed to let players represent social causes with tape.
"There is word the NHL, NHLPA and NHL Player Inclusion Coalition have agreed that players will have the option to represent social causes with stick tape throughout the season. This includes games and practices"
