It is certainly not just your average Thursday night hockey game. Tonight, Canada takes on the U.S. in a game that feels slightly bigger than just what is just happening on the ice.
The two teams will battle in the final of the first ever ‘4 Nations Face-Off’, a tournament that has featured a prominent political undertone with the ‘booing’ of both the American and Canadian national anthems by spectators in Montreal and Boston.
We hit the streets of Exeter-Grand Bend to get your thoughts.
For anyone following the 4 Nations Face-Off event, it has been hard to ignore the socio-political undertones attached.
Both countries have had their national anthems boo’ed at different points by spectators in Montreal and Boston – a trend that will likely continue.
Game time is scheduled for 8 pm tonight.
