Milwaukee Admirals defenseman Luke Prokop came out as the first openly-gay player on an NHL contract in July of 2021. Ahead of Wednesday night’s Pride Night, Luke sat down with the Voice of the Admirals, Aaron Sims, to discuss his coming-out journey, both in hockey and in life.

THANK YOU ADMIRALS FOR THIS!!!!!
Covid kickstarted me to come out too. Deepest respect to Luke, so happy for him and grateful for the trail he's blazing. Thank you Admirals for giving him the mic, love from CA!
Thanks for coming out, Luke. Hopefully it will be easier for others to come out and be their true selves, especially once the haters start diminishing.
PROUD of you!!
Great job Admirals. Good luck Luke, hope to see you in the NHL soon!🏳🌈👊
