- St. Louis Blues played the Vegas Golden Knights at Enterprise Center on Thursday, when fans in the stands held signs reading “Israel Kills” and “Free America from Israel.”
- St. Louis Blues issued a statement Monday calling the signs “vile messages of hate” that were “unfortunate and unforgivable,” while owner Tom Stillman described the display as an antisemitic protest.
- Tom Stillman said the fans who held the banners were ejected from Enterprise Center after Thursday’s game.
- 2026 Freedom Convoy said it was responsible for Thursday’s protest and rejected Stillman’s characterization, stating that “Criticizing Israel is in no way, shape or form antisemitic.”
Why it matters: For the fans holding both signs, Thursday’s game resulted in expulsion from Enterprise Center. For the Blues and the 2026 Freedom Convoy, the dispute is equally concrete: the team calls the display an antisemitic protest, while the convoy says criticizing Israel is not antisemitic.
