Jordan Binnington struggled — not with what to say, but how to say it.
The Blues goalie normally is a man of few words. But that was not the case in a lengthy Instagram post that decried racism, promised to stand in solidarity with those “fighting for change, equality and justice,” and encouraged young followers on social media to “ask questions, listen, learn and pass your knowledge on to your friends.”
Binnington was among several Blues and Cardinals players to speak out on social media in the last day or two, responding to the racial unrest triggered by the killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer one week ago, leading to protests and looting across the country.
