Tournament MVP Nathan MacKinnon and player of the final match Connor McDavid also joined the celebrations.

Team Canada coach Jon Cooper hails players’ achievement

Speaking to the media after the game, Team Canada coach Jon Cooper said the country should be proud of what the team has achieved.

"I just hope Canada is proud, because every player in that room is proud to be a Canadian," Canada coach Jon Cooper said via Sportsnet. "Did we need a win? Not only our team, but Canada needed a win. The players bear that on their shoulders and they took it seriously. This one was different. This wasn't a win for themselves. This was a win for 40-plus million people, and the guys knew it, and they delivered."

The championship game was played amid rising political tension between Canada and the USA. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly talked about making Canada the country’s 51st state, a proposal which has not been well-received by Canadians.

Sports fans in the country had taken to booing whenever the US anthem was sung at recent games. Last week, fans at the Bell Centre in Montreal booed Team USA captain Auston Matthews during the tournament's opening ceremony.

The Canadian anthem was “lightly booed” ahead of the final game in Boston on Thursday.
