MONTREAL (AP) Fans booed during the playing of the U.S. national anthem before the New York Islanders' 6-3 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday night.

The sellout crowd of 21,273 at Bell Centre was asked to ''show your support and respect for two great nations'' before the singing of the American and Canadian national anthems.

Glad the Islanders beat the cr*p out of the Montreal Canadiens!

Of we they lost ... they're in Quebec ... land of the part-frenchies.

The Islanders had AMPLE reason to play extra hard against them.

[ladyinred]

These are our friends right? Hope they need our help soon.

[Guardian_John]

thak you for your comments....Montreal is NOT Canada. Most of us out west pray for all to go well for all USA forces in Iraq

[leadpenny]

Good point. Maybe on the next referendum, Quebec will make their break and then truly become part of France.

Exactly!

In polls Anglo Canada supports our war as much as the UK, while Frog Canada dislikes us. The multi culti Frog creep who runs the country is a major obstacle.

"Glad the Islanders beat the cr*p out of the Montreal Canadiens!"

The Candians have been eating too many nuclear geese.

They must be calling home to France on a regualr basis.

the Russian hockey player seems giddy about the boos. get his commie ass out of this country. do we need to make his a$$ a millionaire? far too many russians are happy to see anti-american sentiment spread-- since when have the ruskies been liberators? they have always been on the wrong side of liberty and now is no different.

many people in the mideast region will remember who wanted to keep the oppressor of the iraqi people in place.

the french, germans and russians stand to reap many negative things for their fidelity to saddam.

TIME TO BOO THE INGRATES FROM THE NORTH WHEN THE NATION OF YELLOW STAINS NATIONAL ANTHEM IS PLAYED FROM THIS DATE FORWARD

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

The Quebecers are so arrogant even the Frogs will have nothing to do with them.

[winner3000]

I feel so bad for the rest of Canada. Imagine Kalifornia being an even bigger part of the US. That's how non-Quebec Canada must feel about Quebec. Quebec is so backward that on their liscence plate their motto is "Je me souviens", or I remember. It's apparently all about a battle they lost hundreds of years ago to the British! Now that's what I call a forward looking people.

I suspect the Canadiens just surrendered.

You MUST take over the educational system. You CANNOT win under ANY circumstances while the enemy runs the schools.
