Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov boycotted Tuesday's pre-game skate over his refusal to wear a Pride-themed warmup jersey. The 26-year-old cited his Russian Orthodox faith for the decision, which has divided hockey fans.
'I respect everybody's choices,' Provorov said logging 23 minutes in the Flyers' 5-2 win over visiting Anaheim. 'My choice is to stay true to myself and my religion. That's all I'm going to say.'
He did not answer any follow-up questions about his decision.
