Habs' Gainey: Don't Boo U.S. Anthem
21st April, 2009 - 7:57 pm
ESPN - Montreal coach Bob Gainey is asking Canadiens fans to stop booing the U.S. national anthem.

Fans booed during "The Star-Spangled Banner" before Game 3 of their playoff series with the Boston on Monday night.

"I feel like there's a confusion there with our fans," Gainey said Tuesday. "They feel like booing the anthem is supporting our team, in that the anthem represents the Boston team.

"And I think if they could separate those two things, then we could respect the anthem of the United States of America and they could still participate loudly in whatever way they want to disrupt the Bruins." [READ]
