Saturday was the last night of the Four Nations tournament in Montreal, and it has now shifted over to Boston where American fans did not like the fact Canadian fans booed their national anthem, and fired back.

This have been a very debatable topic over the past couple of weeks, as Canadian fans keep booing their National anthem due to recent political reasons.

USA fans ended up firing back at Canadian fans after they continuously booed their National anthem.

Today, fans that showed up to TD Garden were not too impressed with how the American National anthem was disrespected when Montreal was hosting the first half of the tournament and felt like they needed to get some payback.

Multiple players speak out on the booing of the National anthem

Players always try their best to stay out of politics, but a lot of players ended up speaking on the National anthem being booed.

Brad Marchand is a player that spoke out about the booing taking place in Montreal, and flat out stated that he did not agree with it and that fans should not be doing it. Players don't have any control in what happens with politics, and fans should not be taking it out on the players.

Brad Marchand, on fans booing the U.S. anthem at Bell Centre last night: "They should not be booing the Americans during that anthem. They have nothing to do with the political things that are going on. I do feel bad for those guys in that moment. I don't think it's right."

NHL superstars like Auston Matthews, and Connor McDavid both spoke out on the matter as well, here is what they both had to say about it:

Obviously don't love to see that, but it is what it is. It's out of our control. That's all I'm really good to say about it. - Auston Matthews

I'd like to see all anthems respected. That's all I'll really say about it. - Connor McDavid

Thursday is going to see USA and Canada faceoff in the finals, and it will be interesting to see if the American fans respond again and make more of a statement considering there weren't too many USA fans at today's Canada game.
