The American anthem was booed at the OHL game I was at last weekend. I'm not sure why it's played in the first place, my understanding is that we only play the American anthem when we play an American team in the NHL. The OHL is Ontario only. Maybe someone with some more knowledge can explain that part to me.

Flint Firebirds, Saginaw Spirit, and the Erie Otters are American teams that play in the OHL.

Ah, it was a Guelph vs Saginaw game. That makes sense thanks! I didn't realize there was a few American teams.
