Team USA hockey hero Jack Hughes addressed the controversy surrounding the women’s hockey team’s decision to decline President Donald Trump’s invitation to the White House for his State of the Union address.
The refusal sparked heated backlash, with many critics calling the women’s team “unprofessional” and even demanding they be “stripped of their medals” over what they perceived as disrespect toward the President.
Hughes, who accepted the White House invitation as part of the men’s squad, responded to the backlash targeting his fellow athletes and their reasons for declining.
