- Boston fans respond to Montreal fans booing the US National Anthem - by giving the Canadian National Anthem a standing ovation.
This took place in April 2004, in Game 5 of the playoffs.
As an American, I am glad when we react with class to a deliberate insult. I believe during a Red Wing game, there was some disrespect years ago when O, Canada was sung. However, the real measure of our Canadian allies was proven during the 9/11 attacks. The Canadians immediately offered to land all international flights on their soil in one of the most historically selfless acts by an ally. One entire town, Gander, hosted 7,000 stranded passengers enroute to the United States. The citizens opened their homes, literally, to these people. The Canadians are not only great neighbors, but true friends and allies. Thank you, again.
Ed F pretty sure there is a musical about that now.
@Trizzle Hizzle idiot
@Trizzle Hizzle You dumbass, do you know history? They were/are our biggest allies in Iraq and Afghanistan. They were in WWII before we were, they were there on D Day.
Trizzle Hizzle
I want to truly commend you. LMFAO! Honestly. You are a very brave person and should have a spotlight on you wherever you go. Nobody would have the courage that you do to openly display your ignorant idiocy and utter stupidity so publicly the way you did here.
Bravo! Good job.
Trizzle Hizzle ever heard of World War 2? They declared war on Japan after Pearl Harbor before America did. They didn’t pussy out of World War 1 and didn’t take all the glory. Operation Desert Storm. Persian Gulf War.
Bet montreal felt like shit after this.
Chris Jackson Agreed
Well, I'm a habs fan and I couldn't help but feel ashamed of some of my own people. So as you can see, I'm not one of them.
A MTL fan you can respect. Best of luck to you guys.
Of course i felt like shit after this, the thing is not everyone in Montreal are like this. If something bad or stupid happens in your city or country there's nothing you can do about it. I just hate when people judge millions of people base on a few idiots actions.
What people love to ignore, especially bruin fans, is that this boo'ing happened not long after Chara tried taking Pacioretti's head off intentionally. What the Habs fans were Boo'ing was Chara's face popping up on the jumbotron, I know because I was there, and no, I didn't boo, but I laugh at how clingy the bruin fans are to accuse Habs fans of boo'ing the anthem when in reality, it was Chara.
You know you're bad fans when even Bruins fans are classier than you.
+Kupo Warkson I couldn't agree more.
LOL
sOcs Razor u know ur in trouble when.....
Kupo Warkson oh shit
You're correct.
-An avid Bruins fan
Ottawa fans wouldn't boo the Americans, Calgary fans wouldn't boo the Americans, Winnipeg fans wouldn't boo the Americans, Vancouver fans wouldn't boo the Americans, Edmonton fans wouldn't boo the Americans, and even Toronto fans wouldn't boo the Americans. This is why no one likes Montreal.
See the video of Toronto fans finishing the US anthem after the sound system had technical difficulties?
Yes, shall I say that makes up for it? Probably not...
Cornflack amen and that they have won too many stanley cups
Cornflack lol soooo true
As an Edmonton fan, I'd never boo the Star Spangled Banner.
God bless both nations.
I'm Canadian and it pleases me so much to see American hockey fans with so much class. :))
As a kid growing up in Boston in the '70s and '80s, I learned to sing along to 'O, Canada' by hearing Rene Rancourt sing it so often at the Garden. Stay strong Rene, you're a beauty!
there are several individuals who sing that song well. But one of the best I've heard was Louis Quilico during the 1982 All Star Game which was in Montreal. :P
i am from california (Sharks fan) and i fairly often sing along with O Canada! (except during the playoffs, ofc). Canada is a dream neighbor
That was some 10/10 trolling there by Boston. Gotta respect their fans for that effort. They knew exactly what they were doing and it was hilarious.
The real troll is that Rene is about the worst singer ever, particularly when he's singing "O, Canada".
@@BossyGuyMike not at all, he was excellent
@@patriotsmania9463 Please. The guy imagines he's Pavarotti, but he's more like the guy who does Pavarotti's dry-cleaning.
@@BossyGuyMike ur actually a nerd bud
@@BossyGuyMike During the day he used to sing for the old people in nursing homes. Hes a great man and never thought he was Pavarotti.
Seeing Boston Fans cheering "O Canada" was enough to bring anyone to tears.
STAY CLASSY BOSTON! YOU'RE BETTER THAN MONTREAL!
Boston is still a racist dumphole unwelcoming to people of color. All white people from Massachusetts don't like outsiders or people of other races. It should be renamed Karenston or Karenton 😂😂😂
@@Betis91 that depends on the area you go to.
@@sticky_octo5799 What areas?
@@Betis91 Boston has one of the highest populations of immigrants for any city nationwide. So what youre saying is that the immigrants arent welcome to themselves?

Canada, we're not worried about that crap in Montreal. We love you Canada...now and always. Much love from an American cousin in New Jersey.
I'm from Vancouver and this video, gave me goose-bumps...well done Boston!!!
we love Canada, really. i have always considered it to be virtually the same country. (not sure if Canada would be happy with that. haha!) at the very least i can say i prefer the lyrics of the Canadian anthem to ours, which rather focuses on war too much ... anyways: P.S. i honestly consider montreal to be paris part deux.... paris on ice.
Im a vancouver die hard and i love my country (except toronto what an embarrassment) but ill never boo the us anthem.
as a native of Boston with relatives still living in Canada this is one of my proudest moments as a Bruins fan. they boo our anthem so we stand and wildly cheer Canada's anthem.
Wow. That was actually a really great show of respect right there. Way to go Boston.
i was there 17 years old. Remember it like it was yesterday. Amazing to be apart of. Troll level 1000 lol
I'm 17 now c:
Over 9000.
Montreal would boo the Canadian anthem even harder!
I doubt many montrealers would do that. I personally respect our french heritage and believe that many of the great frenchmen of the past would have been disgusted by what happened. Disrespect of any anthem only reflects on you, it shows you have no respect, class, or regard for others and yourself. Also many french people feel they have gained the respect and status they deserve with many canadians. There history and language is required learning, They hold many seats in government and the whole country pays attention to how they vote as much as Ontario, the most populated province in the country.
Would and has on several occasions.
@@JoeRobinsonOn C'est arrivé lors de l'échec de Lac Meech
This is karma for Boston being a racist city 😂😂
For all the Canadians saying that only ONE province is classless do you not remember the Vancouver riots after they lost to the Bruins in the Stanley Cup Finals?
Yeah, that was really something ... they were out of control up there in Vancouver. It is one thing to go off the rails when your team LOST, but I'm from Boston and I recall the destructive rioting when Red Sox WON Yankees in Game 7 of 2004 ALCS.
In 1993, Montreal had a riot too when they they WON the Stanley Cup over the Los Angeles Kings.
***** lmao angry joy
Angel Deville
Not NEARLY to the same scale... to compare is absurd im sure every team has had that level of rioting
MONTREAL is NOT Canada, they are as much against the rest of Canada as they are the states, I apoloze america for such a lack of respect. Next event I go to I shall remove my hate and remember the great things we have done for each other. Unless its something I disagree with, it happens, but all and all, glad youre our neighbors and not Korea. so ignore Monteal, in Toronto we finished your anthem when the mic broke, thats our true character. So, ignore that game, it doesn't speak for the rest of us. Shout out to my american cousins!
you're not helping the cause by putting all montrealers in the same bag!! there are douchebags everywhere.. toronto is no exception. We should all just learn to respect our anthems without creating more hate by speaking against fellow CANADIANS!!
you're not our cousins, man. you're our brothers
The hell do you mean Montreal is not part of Canada?? Oh but Montreal is so Canada when all their skiers are winning us medals in the Olympics right??their part of Canada when that girl (forgot her name but she from Montreal) scores the winning goal for the women's hockey team to win gold right??lol Im not saying what they did was right but it happen only ONCE in the history of hockey lol their was obviously a reason..I ain't even from Montreal, I'm from Toronto like yourself and I love Montreal! Their girls are hot as hell and you could literally get your dick sucked at church during mass...love and peace to our american brothers doe!!
***** "Typisch fur die Franzozisch! Keine Ueberaschuung!" ...is what Opa would have said.(typical of the French ...no surprise" What a shame. Some people have no class!!!
HorrorMovieReviewGuywhat are you talking about? that is the most hypocritical comment I have ever seen.You sir are a biggot.Not every Quebec native is a seperatist and if you think so then you are off your rocker. All Quebec wants is for Engish Canada to recognize us as equals and right now that is not the case because of people like you.If you don't like the fact that Canada has two official languages then go move elsewhere. Its that simple
Born in America with deep roots in Canada. Love both anthems and cheer both when they are sung!! Go Beez!
Some years ago Montreal played Washington in the playoffs and of course, the Montreal people boo'd America's anthem - typical class from Montreal. IN response we also gave their anthem a huge standing ovation. I actually think it's a lovely anthem.
Luckily, I live in a country where I know i don't have to be jealous - and boo someone else's anthem.
Why country?
Who else in Canada booed?
Only the assholes who want to break apart every two seconds boo you.
@@jsjuhbdn "growing closer and closer together" hahahah when was that the 70s?? LOOOOOOOOOOOL.

@@davidwiggin3241 Québec is victim of racism by english a lot and every one ignores that
bahahahah this is so awesome!!!!!!!!! Im canadian, this is the best response I have ever seen..... to anything. Americans, montreal is our stupid younger little sister. Dont listen to them. Our countries are best friends forvever. go USA and go CANADA
exactly right. i would be bothered if any other arena boo'ed the US anthem, but hearing that it was montreal, i wasn't at all surprised. nor did i care. what does France have to do with us???
p.s. i regularly sing along with the Canadian national anthem. - even during playoffs, i think! (maybe not game 7 against my sharks, though. lol)
I am a Montreal fan from Montreal and i say that it was a very shameful and disrespectful thing they have done..
I personally would never do that and i respect U.S.A.
To be fair, I don't doubt we deserve some of it. I'm an American and our politics in this country are absolutely shameful. As is our confusing need to invade other countries. But yes, booing ANY anthem is shameful.
VancouverChokers
I'll respond to your comment since it's most reasonable. Now I believe Montreal is a very political city. If memory serves me correctly this was around the Iraq invasion and the whole talk about WMDs. So with an already hatred for Boston, then add in a "phoney" war, well you saw the result. I agree booing a national anthem is shameful. Whether it be hockey, baseball, even the Olympics, keep politics out of it. I think Islander fans also did this once. Their club had to release a statement, to also remind their fans that Canadians also play for their team.
***** "Whether it be hockey, baseball, even the Olympics, keep politics out of it."
Best part of your statement. I wish Bob Costas would abide by this and stick to sports.
@@VancouverChokersCanadian's booing are the hidden way to show antiamericanism that no ones wants to talk about
i'm from vancouver, and boston just became one of the places i want to visit in the future after watching this video. great class.
I love a perfectly executed classy move
Boston is trash
Two days later they called NBA, NFL, and MLB players the n word while standing next to their kids
Checkmate Montreal
checkmate that's awesome ha ha ha
Bonjour!!!!
Simply Out Classed
4 1/2 years later, and I still remember this. As a Montrealer, I was ashamed of our fans who booed the Star Spangled Banner. But you Bostonians at that game showed a class that took the high road. Thank you. Of all of the US cities I have been to, seriously, I love Boston! (Though I still hope my Habs crush the Bruins!)
You tell em Grapes! You may work up North now but you know you will always be one of us here in Boston!
I'm happy to see that Canadien fan trying to make up for that horrible display in Montreal by waving an American flag around and showing his support for the anthem.
Also in the video I did heard some Quebec accents singing the anthem trying to make up for the booing. Don't generalise and hate all Quebec because of the assholes booing.
You have amazing hearing. LOL! Damn!
Quebec is a strong and ancient culture by North American standards, they don't have to settle for being disgraceful and petty. Their French heritage is one of honor almost to a fault, I wish they lived up to that french heritage a bit more than they currently seem to.
Good to see some Quebecois being aware of the message they sand to the anglophone world and trying to set the record straight.
So, just 95% then?
@@datjew62 Nah man, it is more of a Montreal thing to be disrespectful.
Back in Buffalo, my friends and I used to have pretend Stanley Cup Finals games when we were in high school. We always sang both the U.S. and Canadian national anthems before each game. All of us knew the words to both anthems and were proud to sing them both.
@N A We do. It's here: ruclips.net/video/VxnDeb-TLhE/видео.html
As a Bruins fan this made me proud but i was happy that next time the game was in Montreal .. the Montreal Fans clapped and cheered. A great example not to repay an insult with an insult to make the world a better place.
i am amazed that they clapped. they were probably so confused
Thanks Boston
From NY
I have to imagine that the people of Halifax were very proud of the class demonstrated by their good friends in Boston. The people of those two cities have shared a bond since 1917 when Bostonians sent trainloads of food, medicine, clothing and other supplies to Halifax after the devastating explosion. Their kindness has never been forgotten, nor should it.
HEAR! HEAR! So refreshing to read positive posts about our two beautiful countries.
Cheers, with much love - Canada
Once again Boston shows....... it is America's greatest city!
***** ehhh
+Gabriel Horowitz Perhaps you need to watch again.
Mike Hawk nah
Yah
+Mike Hawk (Hertz) Go hurl racial slurs at minorities. At least Montreal players love their city. Ask Bill Russell how he feels about Boston fans (they treated him like shit). Or read about how Ted Williams hated the fans. If you love racism, you'll love Boston!! Feel horrible for Malcolm Subban. Montreal have a small minority of idiots. Boston? Filled with racists. And hey, since your first slur was to deal with someone else's sexuality, it is quite clear you're dealing with feelings yourself. It's okay - tell your friends and family you like men. You can even get married now!!
Coming from a Hawks fan, mad respect for you guys!
This was very heartwarming to see. I wish the discourse among fans would stay at these high levels.
Gives me a chill, everytime I see this ,how wonderful my fellow Americans let our Canadian brothers and sisters know how much we value our neighbors to the north, no matter what.
when was this game? I'm so totally impressed with Boston fans!!!!! Very Well Done!!!
Boston you are full of class..A+ class. I'm Canadian and I am deeply sorry for what other Canadians did.
no worries bro. we expect nothing less from montreal. lol!
As a New Yorker and a diehard Rangers Yankees Jets and Knicks fan I could not hate Boston more but this was awesome and I would’ve been rooting for the bruins all the way for this game
Tim B in Boston, we don’t hate you New Yorkers, we just feel bad for all your losing. 16-1 😳
Even though Montreal didn’t respect America, I still have respect for them! Thank you Canada and Montreal! - Fellow Brother
I have never been so sick to my stomach, as when I heard about Canadians booing the US national anthem.I am Canadian and I have proudly fought overseas beside US, British and Afghani soldiers. I am proud of the way my fellow Bruins fans showed a lot more class than some angry Canadien fans will ever have!!!
*montreal. not Canadians as a whole
This guy was an icon, entertainer, color man, super coach and asset to the game and they dumped him over nothing.
Don did nothing wrong but say the truth.
You got that right.....they dumped Grapes a pillar of hockey and love of country .... It makes me sick here in America all our Native American groups love when pro sports use names for military or pro teams.. It shows a sense of strength and pride, natives love it.. The only people that have a problem using the names are white liberals...Yup and it's none of there business
Nah he got stale
As a Red Wing fan I am very impressed. Good job, Boston!
This is straight up class.
Yeah class. That's what I think about when I think about Boston.
It should be the first thing that comes to mind.
No. I always think of "Car" when someone says Boston.
When someone says Boston I always think about those bunch of fucking goons including Lucic
Boston outclassed Canada.
BOSTON outclassed CANADA.
Well it was Montreal so...
But Boston is still trash and a racist shithole

joy to Boston from your great country. Bobby Orr thr greatest. Espo, Eddie Shore.Patrice Bergeron, Marchand.Don Marcotte and the great Don Cherry.
To me this tells me that boston understood that all canadians do not feel like that and I appreciate them for forgiving those classless individuals for an act like that. It brings tears to my eyes and while I sometimes may not agree with your politics and views, your always our brothers to the south. All the years of peace and friendship between us, all countries should do so well. Thank you from a great, natural, and beautiful country.
I'm American, and I'm damn proud of Canada and all Canadians!
Sad that anyone's anthem is booed. Not respectful or sportsman like. But I want to say that I lived and work in a small town in Quebec after I graduated from college. Everyone I met was friendly and respectful. I was never "called out" about being American. I visited Montreal and Quebec City and found the same to be true. There are kind and unkind people in every population - no matter where you are. You can't judge people by newspaper headlines or newscasts or making generalities.
I went to game 5 and 7 in Boston vs the Habs this year. Never heard more people singing O Canada or The National Anthem in my life, the crowd was pumped.
Thank-You BOSTON & I'M FROM NEW YORK & FROM THE U.S.A!!!!!
Boston Fans are some of the most classiest fans in Sports.
Jimmy Valmer After literally dozens of dives and a seemingly innocuous hit, you can't blame Boston fans for booing Raymond. The worse issue is the idiot medical people of the Canucks let him be helped off the ice and he clearly had no control of his legs.
hahahahahahaha is that a joke
although I don't believe them to be a majority, I'm fairly sure most of the Boston fans in the crowd that night were purposely acting "classy" even though they didn't feel that way. Trying to be seen as the "bigger men"... that being said, both sides have idiots, and it's just wrong to generalize. Let's have some respectful, rational discussions for once , and enjoy hockey!
Uhhh...you smoking dope? lol. Boston is scumbag central.
Have you ever been to Boston?? People who have never been to this city has a tendency to say that.
Love it!, and my descendants are French-Canadian!
I tottaly agree I'm from Montreal i just found out about this im glad that Boston's response was this mature i respect that.
This is why I'm proud to be a Bostonian and why I'll always live in Boston. BOSTON STRONG
I actually remember this. I was much younger and home on leave while I was in the US Army. It breaks my heart hearing the Anthem booed, but hearing American Patriots applaud country honestly brought a tear to my eye. I had 2 more deployments after that but that always makes me proud. I hope this newest generation gets to feel the same way that I do!
Way to show 'em Boston! Class city, class team too!
Thank you for the compliment.
Sincerely,
Bruins fan from Weymouth, MASS.
I Have so much respect for Boston, For the Finals and for stuff like this.
This reminds me of what America does
Gets involved in a country where the population hate America and are nationalists, America still helps regardlessly...
Yeah right buddy, this was in 2004. Boston fans are racist pricks towards pk subban and deserve all the bad attention they get
Subban is awwwwwwfffffffuuuuullllll
***** Better than average
Awwwwwwful
***** You can say that he's awful, but remember, you're not in the NHL.
Great job Boston!(:
And by the way...I just wanted to reflect all of that love back at you Canucks and say that I am SUPER glad you're our neighbors. Its an awesome country.
I wish they did this at every game.
French-Canadians boo your anthem, Torontonians finish it when the singers mic stops working. Ill let you decide who the better people are...
Tiny Rick lol so right
@Dion St. Michael You haven''t won since Bill Clinton was in office. SHUT UP!
toronto last cup was when?
While the Elitist French Canadiens boo other anthems, we in America show the respect that is commanded by a nation's national anthem. God Bless America!
blackwiza24 This comment is relevant . Derp.
Why do people care so much about a fucking anthem and a flag with an assortment of shapes and colors. Its silly when you think about it. And you have people from all over the world playing in the NHL and we focus on Canada and USA.
@@BasePuma4007 I am gonna clear up your lack of knowledge about this matter..We have lots of anti American Americans living here they have never had there freedoms or rights challenged They were never called upon to defend there way of life not knowing if they would make it home...You see the flag has taken on many meanings and memories over the years of our young country...It means the men who fought and died with you..It symbolizes more than just the nation it is the 1st thing thing raised after a hard fought battle....So our flag Absorbs all of what it goes through on its journeys keeping us free and safe... So it's obvious that our country wouldn't be what it is if it wasn't for the veterans well if that flag means that much to the veterans shouldn't it be respected and preserved.... If you want a protest why would you desecrate the very symbol that gives you the right to protest..doesn't doesn't make sense... I think of all the guys that gave their freedom for eternity for you and me.... It's the 1st thing we put up in the morning and the last thing we put away at night... Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know... Most of the people that think that way tend to be of socialist communists ideologies... Nobody should be rich you work hard your whole life but you have to give everything you make to everybody else... Everybody's poor together... If you look at all of the countries that have fallen... it's all Communist and socialist countries... There's no individualism... No sure it's worth dying for and that flag is as well I hope I helped you out
This is AMAZING
And on the flip side, the fans in Edmonton started singing the Star Spangled Banner when the singer's microphone failed.

As an American I love Canada. However the greatest moment for American hockey was when America beat Canada in the 1996 Canada Cup in Montreal that had Gretzky and Lemieux on there.
I disagree, 1980 against the USSR.
navymmw
The "Miracle on Ice" highly tops what Team USA did in Squaw Valley 20 years beforehand.
I agree but the Victory of the 1996 Canada Cup was historic inasmuch that the Canadian team had Gretzky and Lemieux arguably some of the best pro players of all time
Are you serious?: The 1996 Americans' win was great, but the game pitted American PROFESSIONALS against Canadian PROFESSIONALS. The U.S.1980 Olympic win over the Soviets was a victory of true amateurs--STUDENTS, no less!--against the awesome USSR hockey machine, a team that went on tour and embarrassed several NHL teams in a pre-Olympics tour, for crying out loud. Please get back on your meds.
ARE YOU FOR REAL?!!! Back in a time when "The Soviet Army" were beating the shit out out of North American Teams the "Miracle On Ice" highly topped every accomplishment in the history of U.S. Olympic Hockey, including beating those same Ruskies 20 years beforehand at Squaw Valley for another Gold Medal. There, I gave you two events more historic to U.S. Hockey than their 1996 Victory against Canada.
The last time they met in an exhibition before the 1980 Winter Olympics, The Soviet Union beat the shit out of the U.S. 10-3, go figure! No Red-Blooded American(Even Myself) ever thought that it would be possible after that sound defeat. In fact those American relaxed a bit against West Germany in their Final Game before The Medal Round(To avoid playing The Soviets) down 2-0 at the end of the 1st Period. Coach Herb Brooks saw this and lit a fire under Team USA and they responded with 4 Goals in the next Two Periods to win 4-2.
A caller to a radio talk show suggested that reaction, and the idea went viral on Boston talk radio, so it wasn't exactly spontaneous, though is was probably heartfelt.
When it got down to the individuals to cheer or boo it became Is spontaneous
I like the guy in the Canadians jersey holding the USA flag. That shows respect and respect is something all people should show to opposing teams not only in the playoffs but the regular season as well.
Can't forget how Canada helped get Americans out of Iran when other countries turned their back. However, still was classless they booed our anthem. Many Americans didn't support Iraq war either by the way. Canada is a great ally and business partner and will always be one
If you're going to start naming things that each country did for each other you might be here for a while when you get to America... Just all the retroactive security Remember you have one navy ship you are a target made in heaven but not with the good Ole USA... Love and respect for Canada ...
This shows why Boston is one of the classiest teams in the league, USA anthem gets booed by Flabs fans and they give a Standing O' to the Canadian Anthem
I'm a french canadian from Montreal and I'm ashamed that people actually booed our neighbour's national anthem.
we just love Rancourt too much and were cheering him lol
A lot of class by Boston.
That isn't class. That's sarcasm...

What a stunning, well thought, well reasoned, substantive, witty, erudite retort, Sir.
I declare you winner of the internets.
Dude my dad told me we were there, Game 7. They lost 2-0. Got the tickets off scalpers I guess, pretty raw. I guess they sang our anthem that night too, gave my dad goosebumps.
If you get out classed by Boston then you seriously gotta rethink your life.
People wake up ! the fans at sporting events do not represent the view of an entire country . The wonderful people of Canada have been allies to the United States for many years . They've always had our back and we've had theirs . Our countries are truly united . Show some class because it is a great country .
they have said it montreal only
Woah, hold on a second. I'm a B's fan from Eastern MA and not all Canadians are like that. The fans in Montreal booed our national anthem, not leaf fans, not sens fans, not flames, or oilers or canucks fans, but Canadiens fans. There is a difference between Hockey fans in Montreal and Canadian fans in other cities.
Don Cherry was our coach in the 70s and he was damn good. He LOVED his time here and personally, I wish he could come back to coach the B's, but CBC is paying him very well.
Thanks, Coach Cherry.

IIRC, Montreal fans booed the US anthem not just at an NHL game but at a Pee Wee tournament for God's sake. How disgusting!
Not surprised it was in Montreal they booed an anthem, typical of that fan base.
As a Canadian, Quebec regularly embarrasses our country but yet we still cater to them .
They are too often the lowest class of Canadians. Many English Canadians don’t acknowledge ‘Quebecers ‘ as true Canadians. God bless America 🇺🇸 and God keep my land glorious and free 🇨🇦

Seeing as there are players from all over the world I think it's an insult to sing only the 2 anthems. They should be left out.
Dale Thompson nah, 75% of the league is American or Canadian. There are players from just 17 countries, 4 of those countries have one player, another 5 countries have a combined 22. Hence why we don't play their anthems. If they don't like the NHL only playing its region's dominant anthems then they can head back to Europe and play there.
No, they were doing the right thing by being classy and friendly and ignoring the booing the Montreal fans did
Bro if only canadian fans were more like this
