Intentional or not, a Boston Pizza restaurant in Penticton has stirred up some playoff hockey controversy.

As the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers gear up to battle in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the B.C. location appeared to take the side of Alberta.

A sign that reads 香蕉视频直播淏ring the Cup Home, Let香蕉视频直播檚 Go Oilers香蕉视频直播� was seen on the restaurant香蕉视频直播檚 billboard in the parking lot last weekend. It has since been removed.

The image went viral on social media, with Canucks fans voicing their displeasure over the restaurant showing apparent favouritism to Edmonton.

Some Oilers fans, meanwhile, have had a different reaction to the Penticton controversy.

As of Tuesday, May 7, however, the restaurant香蕉视频直播檚 billboard no longer displays the words 香蕉视频直播淟et香蕉视频直播檚 Go Oilers.香蕉视频直播� Instead, both the Canucks and Oilers香蕉视频直播� logo can be seen with the words 香蕉视频直播淲ho Will Bring Home the Cup.香蕉视频直播�

The manager declined to comment on the matter.

Boston Pizza launched a national ad campaign ahead of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, encouraging fans of all Canadian teams to come together in the name of wanting the Cup to return north of the border.

Penticton, coincidently, was mentioned twice during Sportsnet and CBC香蕉视频直播檚 Hockey Night in Canada broadcast last Saturday.

Before the Toronto Maple Leafs and Boston Bruins battled in overtime of Game 7, host Ron MacLean shared the story of how the Canadian restaurant came to be, with Penticton serving as one of its first locations. Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving, who was born in the South Okanagan city, is the son of Boston Pizza co-owner Jim Treliving.

The Canucks and Oilers play Game 1 of the second-round series on Wednesday, May 8, at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
