The lady is eating burritos. Some quartet of guys that probably spent a litle bit to much time singing and working on their hair is butchering the canadian anthem. Gospell does not belong in the nhl and eating burritos during any national anthem shows a lack of class and respect for anyone that may actually be emotional attached to the national anthem.
In this case probably alot of canadians. Afterall this is where hockey is from and a huge portion of the tv viewers comes from canadian homes.
They have to watch this lady grab a burrito during the anthem, thank god they switched the camera before she actually plew one in her mouth. It would have been horror.
Eating during the canadian anthem is a litle bit like the all star game itself. A game where nhl try to franchise and sell hockey the best way they can. Its a game where anyone that is anything in the nhl know "its for the show" to play physical, with speed and grit is a big nono. What mathers here is flash, look good for the camera make moves. Its not an ordinary game, things like emotions and fighting spirit is flushed down the toilet.
And why would they? Noone really care..
The fans sure dont care, if the audience themself happen to cheer during the game its a miracle rather a common occuracy.
Its just another nice packed ploy, dressed up to look good just like the terryfing gospell quartet butchering the canadian anthem..
Weither you are into gospell or not is offcorse up to anyone, there might even be canadians that thought that was a nice segment.
There might even be canadians that think that the all star game is all good and fun. But this isnt hockey, its a ugly spoof of what hockey could and never should look like at all. Its worse than kids playing hockey for the first time, atleast those kids often try to win and will show emotions even if they cant stand on their skates.
Atleast the exhibit games during the preseason is packed with prospects that will work their but off to make their team. Almost all segment of hockey has some kind of emotion attached to it, that way the nhl all-star game is unique.
But the all star game is for the american market, rest assure.
To draw in new fans a big jippo freakshow.
Its a shame that nhl keeps neglecting the canadian market for the more capitalised american one.
It is what it is. The Players deserve a break during the season and the players consider it an honour and really enjoy it. Is it a good game? No, but watching skill on display and the guys having fun is hard to hate that much.

Nobody ate during the american anthem.
but in here you need too be canadian to start a thread, i tried too but they moved it fast! But they do have 5-6 similar trade sort of threads! i rather see ping-pong then the allstar game.

Its racism man, those canadians are trying to hold a good man down.
Dont you worry thou, we are making this board sweider by the day. They cant stop us now.
I think the entirety of the All-Star effort was worth it to see Phil Kessel 1 - picked last and 2 - held pointless in a 21-goal game. Awesome. A hugely overrated jerk of a player gets shown up and shut up.
I'm looking into getting NHL Network... weighing the options but I think I can get NHL Network if its worth it.
I have the Canadian version personally it is a waste of a channel. It shows live games once or twice a week, but they are usually the games nobody else wanted to air, ie: Minnesota vs. Atlanta, Columbus vs. Tampa Bay, etc. They have a program called NHL on the fly, that is aired every night and is pretty cool, It shows segments and highlights of all games throughout the night. Other than that is shows Classic NHL and the odd documentary. I don't know if the American version is any different, but TSN/Versus is a much better network for hockey than the NHL network!
