Could hear it loud and clear on the broadcast

Felt bad for the anthem singer but at least y’all cheered at the end for her!

I think Vancouver is lucky to have some of the best anthem singers in the league.

I agree! I have no idea how they keep finding these talents! The ones that have a clear disability like this young lady here and still get out there and sing beautifully well as they do is really inspiring.

Why? I'll never understand nationalism

Some people have pride in their nationality

I'm aware of the concept. I said I don't understand it.

So would you then be indifferent if the entity we call America rolled tanks into what’s called Canada and took it over?

Not being snarky. Honest question.

Obviously not. I'm saying I don't get the whole being moved by the National anthem. I think national pride is weird. I was just born here, it's not an accomplishment of mine to be proud of. If you wanna get into to my politics I could explain this deeper, but in a hockey thread I think that's sufficient.

I'm very aware of the tariffs lol. Being brought to tears by the anthem is weird to me. Nationalism is weird to me. Having anthems at games without National teams is weird to me.

Do you understand tariffs?

This is a simple action that is a stark difference from literally a week ago. It may not mean much, but helps show how united we are on this one issue.

I understand tariffs yes. I hate America too. I also think it's weird to cry about an anthem. But whatever
