LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Blues have condemned what they called an antisemitic protest during a game last week at Enterprise Center.

Signs that read "Israel Kills" and "Free America from Israel" were held by fans in the stands Thursday when the Blues played the Vegas Golden Knights .

In a statement on Monday, Blues owner Tom Stillman called the signs "vile messages of hate" that were "unfortunate and unforgivable."

Stillman said the fans who held the banners were ejected from the arena.

The 2026 Freedom Convoy, which said it was responsible for the protest, disagreed with Stillman's characterization of the signs.

"Criticizing Israel is in no way, shape or form antisemitic," the group said in a statement.
