The league has introduced a complete and complete ban on rainbow Pride Tape this season, in the latest attempt to remove visible support for LGBTQ people. This comes just days after a leaked memo revealed that the league would encourage players to avoid being in 'close proximity' with others associated with league 'Special Initiatives' nights. Other 'Special Initiative' nights performed by the league include Black History Night, Hockey Fights Cancer Night, and Military Appreciation Night in lieu of Pride Night.

Some of the league's top players have voiced their dissatisfaction with the league's decision not to produce themed warmup jerseys next year. Commissioner Gary Bettman announced that none of the league's special edition warmups, as well as the ones worn for Pride, Military Appreciation, and the league's 'Hockey Fights Cancer' campaign, would not be worn in this season. That's allegedly due to the pick few players and teams that scrapped Pride Night warm-up jerseys, which Bettman characterized as a "distraction."
