This week we continue a two-part conversation between a group of LGBTQ+ hosts from the Locked On NHL channel on being Queer in the world of hockey. Featuring Jay Forster (Blue Jackets), Sarah Avampato (Kings) Robby Leaño (Coyotes) and Rachel Donner (Flyers), this week's conversation picks up with some talk of how each of the panelists made their way into hockey media, before pivoting to a discussion of rainbow capitalism, the problem of NHL teams selling pride merch but pocketing the profits, and whether pride merch has value if the profits are not being funneled back into the LGBTQ+ community.
