No, but the tariffs were not official then. It happened tonight at the Sens game and will no doubt gain momentum. Personally I don't have an issue with it per se, I don't think the anthems should be played at sporting events anyway unless it's international competition. But booing when kids are singing is wrong. Unfortunately that won't stop people.
A smart move for now would be to suspend singing the anthems for a while but that’s not going to happen. Teams will have to announce to respect the singers and take out your anger and frustration in a different way in a different place. For example check the label and if it says “made in the USA” put it down and purchase something else. And put your travel dollars elsewhere. But please don’t boo children during a special moment in their young lives.
It’s not name calling. You’ve never heard the term “whipping boy”? And relax, everyone is allowed an opinion. You’re nobody’s protector so stop trying to be a hero.
Ah the arrogance. “Same level” lmao! You make a big stink because you don’t know the term whipping boy. You’re just a nobody with an opinion just like the rest of us. Your hockey history or knowledge does nothing to increase the value of your opinion.
Agreed. I’d love to see the anthems banished except for international play.
Ok, for starters he is way off his pace for goals from last year. For a guy with a great wrist shot, he should have more goals. It’s what you expect from an OA who isn’t a physical player. He has very little physical presence and in fact any bit of physicality and he often slashes or uses hit stick against the other player. Ever notice how he carry’s his stick in scrums and when the whistle goes? Straight up in the air…it’s a tactic to keep guys away from you.
According to the OHL website it’s three. 46 vs 49. (It’s two between LDN and Spits 47 vs 49)

He’s a decent skater for sure, but he quits on plays too early. Watch for it. He floats quite a few times a game.
These are the things I see, this is why I have the opinion that he could and should be doing better. He has the talent.
Hes not going anywhere but if his play doesn’t improve then I’m sure ice time will reflect it. He’s had some flashes of brilliance over the past couple weeks. I’d love for him to hustle more and shoot more. Everyone will benefit.
Hopefully FP didn’t read this or the tears will flow because I expressed a negative opinion.
Although Nelli did say Bruz needs work on His defensive game, and there was no outcry of horror so maybe it’s selective protectionism.
Anyways, there…you wanted details, you got it. And to quote the famous FP….”IMO”

Common, tell us your real name, we would like to say things that you determine as not name-calling, let's see if you would like criticism on public pages by your full name. Don't kid yourself, you bet, these kids read what is written on public pages, and are very much affected. Let's move on from this discussion and let us be respectful. Cheers !
