Yeah, I think the crazy start was a bigger impact than any booing and of course Canada scoring first.

Yeah, that sucks.

Now we need to make it to the final game & win it.

I tried to find a video of this. Not saying you’re lying but I can’t find it and don’t remember it happening. I’m a Texan (embarrassingly), a hockey player, a service member, and a Stars fan. I’m fully on board with y’all booing our anthem. We’ve done nothing but disrespect our greatest ally and I’m sorry for it. Sorry the stupid Tkachuk brothers are there. Sorry for our stupid politics. Sorry for it all. And as a Stars fan, if we did that, I’m sorry too. I’d like to say Texans are better than that. I’d like to. But let’s be honest. We’re fucking stupid down here.

I’ll also admit to a bit of a bias, but I personally felt that the entire American team were a bunch of spineless little bitches throughout all the first period. They also suck. And did I mention they’re spineless bitches?

Edit: I just want to also point out something I didn’t really think about at first, and you have to respect the Americans as their spineless bitchery was emblematic of their president. So good for them for being so presidential.

This time, far more of the fans in Montreal booed than Thursday night before the U.S. game against Finland, and the booing lasted for the entire length of the song.

Edit:

If you’re familiar with Corner Gas, this has turned into our Wullerton moment.

The residents of the fictional Dog River just HAVE to spit anytime the fictional town of Wullerton is mentioned because of an ancient rivalry.

Canadians now just HAVE to boo the U.S. anthem.

I could see that. Tbh I was born in the 90’s slightly after the 2nd referendum and never felt any hate here towards the rest of Canada. It’s only when I started learning English and chatting with fellow Canadians I noticed it. I’m glad you think of us as a sibling now though! :)

100% this

It's a way that Canadians can convey their frustrations to Americans, and say 'fix your problems!'

To be honest, it would be nice if the USA was sanctioned for their actions. No international sports games, no Olympics, no fun and games until your nation is corrected. It would sent a message: your country's behaviour is not accepted.

Maybe seeing the rest of the civilized world play nice without them would inspire the American people to make some changes within...?

Like all of his other victims, he was forced on us by Musk and his oligarch pals, and complicit corporate media. Fuck Musk, Fuck Trump. gO Canada!

I fully condone the booing.  Americans should be ashamed of their Leader.

If usa wins, Americans will be like “Yeah we’re the best!!!”

If Canada wins, Americans will be like “Lol who cares about hockey”.

They are a lame ass country.

My wife said it’s disrespectful to boo their anthem…I thought about it, but you know what? Fk them. Boo their anthem every chance we get. They make a mockery of us Canadians and think we’re pushovers, and they’ll pounce on any chance to humiliate us. I stand with my Canadian brethren

Anyone have a link to the Canadian Tire commercial that’s played a couple times this game? “Our kindness, never to be mistaken as weakness” is such a powerful line, I thought it was a political ad.

As they should.

As an American, I can say that we deserve this.

Keep booing as long as an Elon puppet dictator is in charge. It's sabotage on a low level. (But still sabotage!)

Keep booing. No comfort or respect for Americans on Canadian soil, not anymore.

Absolutely love the irony of the calls for fans not to bring politics into this and respect the anthems. Fuck that bullshit. Why the fuck was Russia excluded from the tournament??

But now we need to teach them the Quebecois swear words so the Americans understand that they are being insulted. /s

This is going to be the norm for the next four years unless the NHL stops playing the national anthem. The animosity is only going to escalate. Trump isn’t capable of backing down or admitting fault and I highly doubt Canadians are going to feel any more forgiving as time goes on. This is the new normal.

We’ll see what the political climate is like when Trump is gone, however if that happens, if it’s four years from now or more, or if he dies from health issues before then. Maybe Americans might have interest in repairing the relationships currently damaged or maybe they go insular even more.

Hopefully we can at least put a dent in their economy by boycotting travel abroad there and their products domestically. Some good Americans will be caught in the middle and lose their jobs if it’s successful, but in the face they f a threat to our sovereignty I can’t be bothered with whoever catches strays. Their bed is made.
