“I really liked how they punched each other a lot.”
Last night was a evening that the Edmonton Oilers and their fanbase would like to forget.
The Oilers dropped Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final to the Florida Panthers in a 6-1 blowout game full of penalties. The Oilers were taking out their frustrations on the Panthers all night, which worked in favor of the Panthers for the most part.
It was a circus atmosphere inside Florida's Amerant Bank Arena all evening with fans chanting loudly, throwing plastic rats on the ice and just generally going off all evening long. It was a classic game of Panthers hockey full of hacks, whacks, face washes and scraps and the defending Cup champions lured in their prey like only they can.
There were over 140 minutes in total penalties handed out, thanks mostly to several misconducts handed out late in the 3rd period. The crowd was loving every minute of it though and a young Panthers fan is now going viral for her adorable reaction to all the rough stuff in Game 3.
