Ahead of last night’s Toronto Maple Leafs game versus the Winnipeg Jets, which fell on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Leafs anthem singer Martina Ortiz-Luis and the Sole Power Gospel Choir teamed up for an absolutely breathtaking rendition of O’ Canada. If you missed it, check it out:
While many believe that anthems at sports events are unnecessary and outdated, they are still performed regularly. If the anthem is going to be sung, we think that a performance like last night’s is the way to go. Martina always delivers a beautiful anthem, and Leafs fans are not alone in thinking she’s the best anthem singer in the NHL. Last night’s performance with the Sole Power Gospel Choir stepped it up a notch. We hope to see them back again sometime, and will definitely be checking out their other performances.
Author’s Note: Martina was kind enough to point out that many outlets were sharing an incorrect name for the choir. This post has been updated to reflect the correct name.
