Prior to the USA vs. Finland game at the 4 Nations Face-Off, Canadian fans at the Bell Centre booed during the American anthem despite an announcement that asked for respect for both nations and athletes. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/MollieeWalkerr/status/1890209608645689649'> </a></blockquote></div> Miller's response to the booing was absolutely shocking, as he said he and his teammates liked it. «I think we like it, not politically, but we just had a sense of, we know where we're at in Canada, and I think that fires us up more than anything,» said Miller postgame. The booing was part of a growing trend across Canada, sparked by recent events. Although not deafening, the response was certainly audible. Not all of Miller's American teammates responded as vocally as he. Star winger Matthew Tkachuk was short in his response but clear in his opinion when asked about the incident following the game. «I didn't like it; that's all I've got.» - Matthew Tkachuk In spite of the controversy, Team USA came out on high energy, dominating Finland <a href='https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/united-states-unleashes-in-third-period-to-rout-finland-at-4-nations-face-off/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>and taking off in the third period for a 6-1 victory</a>. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/NHLNetwork/status/1890248446436864168'> </a></blockquote></div> <h3>Boos tomorrow night could fuel the Americans</h3> Their next challenge is Canada tomorrow night in Montreal. The stakes already are so high, but if the anthem is booed again, something that appears almost certain to occur, it could fuel the American fire. «These guys are hockey players and they're here to play hockey. They're also proud Americans and it's a privilege to represent your nation and all of us that have the opportunity to participate and be a part of this US team, it means a lot to all of us,» said head coach Mike Sullivan. «From that regard, we have guys that are proud Americans. As far as the national anthem, I'm not sure there's influence there. That's really not something we can control; we just want to play hockey.» For the majority of them, it will be the biggest game of their professional lives so far. With national pride and a bitter rivalry to be contested, it will be a must-see match.
