The Dallas Stars of the NHL announced they will continue to play the national anthem before games after the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks said they would refrain from playing it.
“The playing of the national anthem is a time honored tradition and the Dallas Stars will continue to perform the Star Spangled Banner prior to our games at American Airlines Center,” the Stars posted on Twitter Wednesday afternoon. “As the only National Hockey League team in Texas, we are proud to represent our state and our country.”
