“Kyle Connor, Jake Guentzel, Jackson LaCombe, Brock Nelson, Jake Oettinger are the five who aren't going,” The Athletic's Sean Gentile reported on Tuesday.

At least five members have some integrity. The other twenty are fucking trash humans.

I appreciate these 5 but it is enraging the team is going and they all suck fascist dick.

Well old Patel showed up to I'm assuming 'encourage' them to go, so they're probably all afraid for their families at this point.

Oorrr they're pieces of shit, apparently.

Better than none.

“We’re giving the State of the Union speech on Tuesday night. I could send a military plane or something, if you would like to, it’s the coolest night. It’s the biggest speech,” Trump said on speaker phone in the locker room to cheers and eager replies of “we’re in”.

They will get 15 mins of fame owning the libs, then wonder why their whole life falls apart and nobody gets them deals except shitty my pillow gigs

No need to give rich white boys benefit of the doubt. The Tkatchuks are open in their Trump revelry.

This isn't surprising at all to anybody who has spent time around hockey players. The percentage of right-wing douchebaggery (not to mention rape culture, etc) is off the charts.

I always like watching the sport, but hockey players are all just frat boys, and it shows.

Yeah, they all look pretty happy to be there in the pics.

I’ve never been into it, but at this point I want to see if PWHL games are near me or at least stream them somewhere. The women could use all the support.

True. I mean I love hockey being a minority but holy hell some of the fucked up racist shit I've had to deal with while attending games.

And there's some data to back up why now.

Ahhh, I see

After Gretzky shows them how Donald likes it done.

I'd be afraid Trump would steal my medal.

Sports you spelled sports incorrectly be brave it isn't just hockey.

I’d show up and act like this lady

If I were those guys, I'd head over to Flavor Flav's soiree for the Women's team. It's going to be more lit that that dumb State of the Union.

I love watching PWHL games. So much fun.

"President of scum, of putrid!"

Moreso (men's) hockey than other sports though. https://votehub.com/2026/01/20/the-political-lean-of-pro-sports/

It doesn't have stats for PWHL, so I cannot comment one way or the other.

I believe that all PWHL games are posted to YouTube by the league.

Calling it now ... KFC will get a standing ovation and Helly will get booed at the next Jets home game.

Slime*, Putrescence*

Edit: Sorry. I can quote that scene in particular, as well as several other scenes in TPB.

"Bow down to her if you want,

The Queen of Slime,

The Queen of Filth,

The Queen of Putrescence!

Boo! Boo! Rubbish! Filth! Slime! Muck! Boo! Boooooo!"

Honestly, 'Tis a rather silly movie, but I still love it.

Kyle Conner, or Kentucky Fried Chicken? I mean it seems that either one would be possible these days.

Edit see nightmare bros post ty!

He's unofficially known as Kyle Fucking Connor, aka KFC.

Kk. Thanks!

I disagree with you. Look at the nfl you got guys literally beating and killings gf and wives. Dont forget good old zionist lebron and honorable kobe cheating on his wife fucking chicks in the ass. You got pen state coaches raping kids in the shower. Its all sports.

I re-phrased the start of this on your behalf so that your comment would be in compliance with Rule 1. No need to thank me.

I'm super proud the Finnish women's team declined the invitation.

guess a large percentage of men hockey players are conservatives and in sports too.

they will probably start pivoting shilling to right wing pundits, speaking engagement, how the left, woke,,,,etc is obsessed with cancel culture.

remember the dude that pushed a girl down the stairs, he was callous and"moved to another school to play hockey"

I professionally would not want to meet one of Epstiens long time friends and potential clients.

They thought of that and gave him a decoy medal

I remember that. :/
