Gary Bettman has just announced a major change for next year, and not everyone is happy about it.

Gary Bettman and the NHL have announced that the league will ban special jerseys for the coming season.

This means that Pride jerseys, as well as military, cancer and aboriginal jerseys, will not be permitted next season.

This is a drastic move on the part of the NHL, which is once again missing an opportunity to prove that hockey is for everyone.

We still don't know how the NHL will explain this decision, but one thing's for sure: it's clearly not unanimous, and many fans are furious.
