Keep this LGBTQ crap away from sports and our children. Sick and tired of this woke world we are forced to live in.
Dumela ❤️
Zachary on the attackery. PPG super star 🤩
He wrote a book? What? WHEN?)
homosexuality is a disgusting filthy vile unnatural perverted abomination that leaves homosexuals to their own reprobate minds FULL STOP !!!
I disagree Zach Hyman, people have a right to stand up for what they don’t believe is right in their view. those that judge these shame on you , they have right to believe what they believe. In the charter of rights of freedoms and constitution of USA . There lot people making big deal out people not doing pride . I’m very disappointed in Sid and his comments. Like are you even listening to what you are saying, “ Said hockey is for Everyone “, . Which what the NHL is promoting. Let’s just look at word everyone and stupid that makes you look Sid. If Hockey’s for everyone Sid ,then I’m sorry but that word includes religion as well.
No hot topic should be freedom of Religion in believing in what you want to believe.
It doesn’t matter the World turn against religion is as it written in book. So that’s where at.
I am proud to be straight!! ✊✊
The Oilers need to keep him as long as possible. He fits so well on this team and I for one as a fan am so glad he is a part of it. He was meant to be an oiler in my eyes
No room for groomers….period.
I cant say I understand being upset by his comments since what he said was that so long as you are a good person you should be accepted and welcome in hockey. Im pretty sure good people wouldn't attack others and make them feel unwelcome
Whatta guy.
LET'S GO OILERS !!!
👏 👏 👏 absolutely fantastic player and person.
Why the LEAFS traded this guy,i will never know.
Zach is the Ultimate Professional and Great Human Being !
Zack represents himself very well. I loved him as a player in T.O. and was chagrined when he was not resigned. This interview shows a sensitive, intelligent well spoken man. I’m EVEN MORE impressed after hearing him respond. His kids are lucky to have he and his wife raising them. Zack, you just keep getting BETTER…
Great addition,shows up every night. Seems he has both skates in the crease alot, isn't that a penalty? Am I missing something
pride jerseys have nothing to do with acceptance it's to do with promoting an agenda lol
TIMESTAMPS HOLY
As is often the case, two things can be true at once:
1) Zach Hyman is a terrific player on the ice and also a genuinely nice person off of it. The Oilers are lucky to have him.
2) "Pride nights" are not merely stating "everyone is welcome in hockey", as all the leftists in the hockey world (from Brian Burke to Steve "Dangle" Glynn) have insisted-that's obvious, and in fact, there are very few people who believe otherwise. These events are actually promoting an agenda of "If you're religious and believe homosexual activity is sinful, you're a bigot." Reimer, Provorov & the Staal brothers all got attacked for not wearing the jersey/taping the sticks because the left is waging a war on religion-it goes against everything they believe in. But they can't say that out loud, so they instead accuse those they disagree with of "hate."
Reimer, Provorov and the Staal brothers explicitly stated (look up their statements!) that they believe everyone should be welcome in hockey, but that's not enough for the left. They have to condone homosexuality itself.
If you really think that the nights are merely about inclusivity, then why are they called "PRIDE nights?" Why did the Canucks hold a drag show (yes, they actually did this-Google it) on Friday night? Why did the Sharks put out a statement decrying the fact that America is too narrow-minded to realize that there are "more than two genders?" Why did the NHL say on Twitter-and I quote: "Non-binary identity is real" if their only goal is inclusivity?
The answer is that it's not. Their real goal is the elimination and demonization of conservative/religious ideals, or any idea that does not perfectly align with their agenda. If they really believed in inclusivity, they would have respect for differing opinions, including those that pertain to religion. (NOTE: If you want to disagree with me on this, feel free, but please be civil.)
Fan Favorite Hyman 😇
Hillarious. Howe Elbowed me when I met him. Right in the nose. It was an honor.
I don’t like the whole pride thing at all
Hyman would have close to 50 goals as well if he didn’t have all his goals taken away
A star with Oilers. Expendable with Leafs. What is wrong with Leafs management?
ive met this guy before, after a game and man is he such a good person off the ice too
Number 18 Craig Simpson is happy you are wearing his #
Take your pride agenda and shove it. I’m tired of this crap!!
Acceptance also means accepting those who don’t agree with a particular agenda.
The recent events around pride really show the true colours of the NHL. Especially from the media. They say we should be accepting of all people, but once a player stands up who says they do not agree on a certain topic, the media goes ballistic and show that they aren’t truly accepting of all people, only accept those who agree with a particular agenda
