Well maybe half the crowd are LEAFS FANS looking for some PLAYOFF HOCKEY, so Buffalo decided to some some respect towards them :lmfaoQuote:

It only seems right as half of each team or more are Canuckleheads ;)
I wondered the same. Maybe it's for Ryan Smyth. HAHA!
Buffalo does this alot if not every game.
Buffalo probably does it because of the large number of canucks who usually turn up to their games. I would guess that a good portion of their fan-base comes from north of the border.
9 out of ten players are probably Canadian,maybe its a respect thing?
My sister and her boyfriend went to a Toronto at Buffalo game recently and they were back up a ways in the interesting seats...
I guess a lot of the locals booed the Cdn national anthem, and some people around them sat down during it. :irked:
At least they weren't getting beat up! I used to go to the odd game at the Aud and it was always scaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrry!Quote:
