Cami Clune sings the national anthem before Buffalo Sabres home games.
Really, she sings two anthems -- both O Canada and The Star Spangled Banner, as the Sabres are one of two U.S. teams (with the Detroit Red Wings) to sing both the Canadian and United States national anthems before games.
Her role has continued into the playoffs, first with three home games in the opening round as Buffalo got past the Boston Bruins, and now into the second round against the Montreal Canadiens.
The Sabres won Game 1 at home on Wednesday, and they're back home for Game 2 on Friday night.
Clune's performances have seemed on the mark throughout the playoffs, and when her microphone stopped working momentarily during Game 5 against the Bruins, the whole crowd stepped in to belt out O Canada with no problem.
