BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Before Game 5 of the Buffalo Sabres Stanley Cup Playoff matchup against the Boston Bruins at KeyBank Center, anthem singer Cami Clune's microphone cut out during the Canadian national anthem, but Sabres fans quickly stepped in and belted out "O Canada."
"It turned into such a cool moment, because, I mean, it just showed what an amazing fan base we have, that they joined in," Clune said. "You know, we're the City of Good Neighbors, and that's just a testament to that."
The moment has since gone viral on social media.
"Molson Canadian saw it as hockey fans doing what Canadians do best, showing up for each other when it matters," a release said. "That spirit is at the heart of 'Cheer Canadian,' the brand’s playoff campaign celebrating the players, teams, and fans rallying behind them throughout the NHL playoffs."
Molson Canadian raised a glass to Sabres fans as a "thank you" for the viral anthem moment and for cheering Canadian. It covered rounds of beer for fans at over a dozen bars across Western New York during Game 6 of the Sabres/Bruins playoff matchup on Friday night.
