They don't want White guys to be dominant at anything that's the truth of the matter. The only other Sport where you hear this crap about needed diversity is NASCAR.

Not really sure what's the issue here. Darker people don't like playing hockey, so what?

Hockey is much more of an international sport which is much more popular in the countries with a lighter skin tone. Baseball is the same way. Many Hispanic countries provide the participants that we see on the field every day. It's not the skin tone as much as it is the culture of the players we see in each individual sport.

Yeah it sucks that we are all forced to spend so much money and time on this in every area these days. As long as there is no institutionalized unfairness there should be no artificial race balancing. Originally Posted by JAKEPEAVY21

Who's claiming that there is a problem? I don't see anyone claiming that there is a problem and if there is the numbers are miniscule .This women is the one and I'm sure there are others who are in control of the NHL who see this as a problem. There doing it as a reason to make a change in the name of diversity and the whole reason for diversity is to reduce the number of white people. Where in the world do you see diversity in any large numbers other than predominately white majority countries? Originally Posted by Optional

uhh no try again. Your an apologist for changes like this that the NHL is trying to make and nice attempt at spinning the question in another direction saying that Kermit is saying there is a problem when he is just saying the NHL is saying there is a problem. That quote has nothing to do with claiming that there are some people who say that there is a problem with there being a majority of white people in the workforce, or coaching, or being a player.

Who cares if there are people who think there is a problem. Ignore them. Doing a report showing the large numbers of whites in the NHL is not a defense. Its an attack that fuels people who support this women and gives her and others leading this charge a reason to make these changes based on their objective of wanting to make the change even before showing these numbers because they already had an idea of the large numbers anyway. The report showing these numbers will give this women and others like her support to want to make a change by showing data that in their minds is unacceptable. Originally Posted by Optional

The word "problem" comes up in the tweet, but not the video. Did she say it was a "problem" in here speech? I guess we don't know from the original post.
But the AP certainly used the word in the tweet.
It was Kermit, he was just quoting the tweet.

When they make it about race, no matter the context or whether she uses the word "problem" or not or anything along those lines, its just wrong. Originally Posted by KVB

I was responding specifically to the use of "problem" and where it seems to come from. Originally Posted by DwightShrute

Now if Kim Davis wants to set some kind of hiring quota then I hope it comes with investments in black neighborhoods for ice hockey access. That way kids can play then become coaches and fathers with kids who play. That will create qualified candidates for sure. It will take more than a generation if they started now.
But somehow I don't see an ice rink and a hockey league popping up and getting poplular in south bama anytime soon.
I would abosolutely, however, not rule out that qualified black people were denied an NHL job because of their color.
It literally happens everywhere with just about everything, even if the incidents are not many, and there is more than enough legitimate data to back that up.
The NHL is just trying to see if that's what they are guilty of and we all know somewhere along the way somebody probably was. It's just the law of averages. But that's likely a minority...again in line with data.

I came from a hockey family... and most of these answers are going around the true bread and butter of the REAL ANSWER.
1. Most black people simply can't skate (no coordination on ice.)
2. They also hate COLD WEATHER.
Yes, hockey is an expensive sport... but it's not the real reason. I'm not being racist... I'm simply being honest. Its hilarious that the NHL is leaning towards minorities. Bettman knows this... he's acting like he doesn't.... he doesn't want heat from this.
If the NHL tries to fix this... good luck... it's impossible.

I agree money, gonna take like two generations of focused change and investment.
And that's not going to happen.

Did Donald Brashear ever talk about a racial issue in hockey? Did Anson Carter every talk about a racial issue in hockey? These dudes played on an ALL WHITE TEAM. It just goes to show.... the media... and "SELECT" groups brings up racism in the world. Where exactly is the racial issue at??? Clearly they would of told you if there was one.
Just one sad ridiculous world we live in now... totally fed up with this horse sh## everyday. They say we live in a free world... it doesn't look free to me. Biased bullsh##. It's always "some group" saying something isn't EQUAL.... well... it looks fine to me.
