Look, I know what’s going on in our country right now is a nightmare. We can’t let Trump’s anti american movement take our pride in our teams representing OUR America away from us. Both us and our friends up north should root for our team. They deserve it.
The thing is, most of the players play in the NHL for the opposite teams anyway. It's more a creative way to replace the All Star game. It's not a real rivalry per se, it's a chance for us to reject the ridiculous Trump attacks. I refuse to be a homer for that orange ass.
Listen: as a Canadian, I'm obviously happy. Does it really matter given the mix of players and the fact that it's simply sport? No, it shouldn't. But, let's be honest; most watching this game knows it's more than a simple game this time. Donald Trump with his Canada threats doesn't help.
I'm praying for them, Art. Trump did a horrible thing to our allies. He stabbed them in the front and back. He betrayed Canada. Americans are horrified. So I hope they win.
Wouldn’t it be something to see if our players traded uniforms with the 😂”administration”😂, I’d PAY DEARLY to see the Canadians beat the EVER LOVING SHIT out of DJT, EM, MTG, NASTY Mace,Merrick Garland, KP, RFKjr, and ANYONE else that’s associated with that SEPTIC TANK of an administration!!!!!!
I'm glad we didn't cause you any sadness.
Your President's moronic ramblings about his sophomoric desire to own us made it more than just a hockey game to us.
We're not the pussy he may be used to grabbing.
The booing isn’t directed at the people but directly at the criminals trying to destroy your democracy & our sovereignty
Your national anthem is BEAUTIFUL
There are clips ( pre trump)of the mic’s failings during it playing in 🇨🇦 & the 🇨🇦crowd spontaneously finishes it- loud & proud

Americans separate their national identity from the government of the day. To many, the flag and anthem are expressions of a shared cultural and historical identity, almost like an ethnicity rather than a political allegiance.
This is why protests involving the flag or anthem are often seen as deeply personal attacks rather than just political statements—they touch on something far more emotional and ingrained than just the government.
I can’t stand that they booed- I’m deeply ashamed as an American. The issue is that their booing isn’t political, it’s just in response to being booed.
They don’t understand that Canadians are being attacked. I do living here, but they have no clue.
Look, half my family is American but I’d be lying to you if I said I wasn’t pissed off at them, and they’re family.
Americans have a lot of soul searching to do and until you prove you’re good neighbours again we probably will treat you with disdain and, at best, indifference.
I mean Danzig’s American so I can’t pretend everything south of the border is bad, but it’s pretty upsetting having your country be so deeply disrespected for the lolz by foreign politicians.
It doesn`t matter who wins! Most of the time with the best team or the best dayly luck! It does matter if a orange diaper bag takes over such finals to spred his lies ore anybody from his shit-team! Canada&USA have great relationships beside the orange buffon! It will be healed in almost 3,8 years!
I just want a good game and I appreciate the fans in Boston with their USA chant and little booing the National anthem. It is only a game and the politics have to be out of it with the better team on that night winning. Go Canada!!!
It was a great game and Canada winning was good for us. WTG hockey players giving a great tournament. Too bad politics have to get involved but "so it goes..." to quote Kurt. V".
Pretty sure the whole world is rooting for Canada. I will say I watched the USWNT-Colombia soccer ⚽ match on TNT and I still pulled for our ladies. Different vibe though.
Thanks my mother was born and raised in Cambridge Mass.
Many Canadians like myself have close family in US but our resolve is strong & directed at those criminals destroying America.
We admire your protests and hope that the people keep taking to the streets and pressure Congress to fight back
I would love to think that they don’t and they’re just going through the motions that have been drilled into their skulls since birth but I fear they do and they think they’re being patriotic. It’s sickening to consider the level of depravity in this country.
I live in Winnipeg and get to see him play often. He is magic in net. The only way to get it by him is a hard hit from the right angle. Otherwise, he is more stretched than my yoga instructor.
I hope my many US friends understand that the booing is against the current regime, not the country in general. I have family and friends in the US that mean a lot to me, and I know none of them support the orange crown. Go Team Canada.
My husband is Canadian. Usually, we have a fun banter during rival games, but tonight, we’re both rooting for the same team. My heart is 🍁 for tonight.
Sorry guys, you got the call from Trump, and that’s the kiss of death anyway.
Indeed! Hubs and I are at odds about whether we will stand at the next hockey game for national anthem. I’m not sure I can. WTF America?! Who even are you?!?! I’m ashamed.
I will. The anthem and the flag to me aren’t about Trump. I’m ashamed of my government and some of my fellow citizens right now but not everything we’ve accomplished over the past 240+ years. We have flaws, a lot of them, but I’ve been to places that were worse. Now “Hail To the Chief”? Hell no.
When I learned Canada had won, I also cheered! However; my country is no longer recognizable. I see leadership in Canada. Yet my country is heading towards a dictatorship!
She did. It seemed like she was trying to out-sing the boos? I don’t know. What I do know is that even I could have done better.
Her singing wasn’t the worst thing. It was the fans chanting USA
I am sad. This American hockey fan could never root for our Canadian rival. Trump is ruining just about everything, but I won’t let him ruin sports for me. 🤷🏼♀️
As a canadian, i think its fkn sad that your orangoutan in chief will talk even more shit if the US wins.
It used to be friendly banter and stuff but he just says gross stuff so i 100% hope canada wins just so he can ignore this match

Doesn't matter if USA hockey wins,
the USA lost 30 days ago.
Sorry, Canada.
From across the Detroit River!
Beat 'em, eh!
Go Canada!

Americans aren’t exactly known for being gracious winners.
I predict a win. 🇨🇦
Friendly rivalry in
the sports arena.
I real life we are friends and have been for long time

There is no reason for it to go the other way though.

In the U.S., the flag and anthem don’t represent the government—they symbolize the people and American culture itself.
From talking to Canadians, it appears that national symbols are more closely tied to the gov than in the U.S.
I’m really starting to hate Americans.
They don’t understand that Canadians are being attacked. I do living here, but they have no clue.
Please don’t apply that to all of us.
Americans have a lot of soul searching to do and until you prove you’re good neighbours again we probably will treat you with disdain and, at best, indifference.
My daughter is Canadian, 5 years old, and always knows she wants the red team to win. So I’m rooting for the red team tonight.
🇨🇦 🇺🇸

May not be “overtime” to do the same in IRL, however.

Never been so happy and proud for my northern neighbors! Way to go!
As an American, I express my deepest gratitude, appreciation, and brotherly love for your win tonight.
🇨🇦
Knowing that Trump called the US team and is rooting for them makes it impossible for me to root for them even though I'm American.
Fuck the fascists
Sorry guys, you got the call from Trump, and that’s the kiss of death anyway.
BTW....Fuck Trump and Musk!
I call the felon 47 and fElon. (Don’t call him Elmo. That would be cruel to the real Elmo.)

Everything Trump touches dies… 🤣
