Wayne Gretzky was named Canada’s honorary captain for a hockey game against the United States, which Canada won 3-2. The choice upset fans as Gretzky has close ties to Donald Trump. Fans booed Gretzky and the Canadian national anthem at the game, held in Boston. Trump had suggested Gretzky run for prime minister of Canada, and Gretzky’s wife seemed to support the idea. A petition is circulating to change the name of Wayne Gretzky Drive in Edmonton due to his support for Trump. Gretzky has not commented on social media about being chosen as the honorary captain. The game marked a controversial moment in the world of hockey, with many criticizing the decision to honor Gretzky given his ties to Trump.
