Oilers and Panthers get roasted by Jimmy Fallon for their appearances
Now in the Stanley Cup Final, the Edmomton Oilers are getting media recognition from the biggest places possible - including national media talk show Jimmy Fallon.
In his show last night, Fallon poked fun at the Oilers and Panthers headshots.
Fallon took pictures from Oilers and Panthers players and took some fun jabs at their appearances. He called
Corey Perry 'Most Likely To Streak at A Monster Truck Rally', Mattias Janmark 'Most Likely to have a Jewelry Box that says Marty's Little Secrets', and
Connor Brown 'Yassified Ed Sheeran'. On the Panthers, Fallon took aim at
Spencer Knight,
Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and
Tobias Bjornfot.
Even if you're not the biggest fan of Talk Shows or Jimmy Fallon, seeing the Oilers get this much attention in national media for the United States is incredible to see, and long overdue. Maybe in this Stanley Cup Final, the general public will finally see McDavid on the biggest stage, and witness maybe the second best player in history in his prime.
The third round of this year's NHL playoffs saw a major increase in viewership across the United States and Canada. The New York Rangers were likely a big part of the draw, but in Canada and growing across the US, perhaps fans are becoming more interested in watching the Edmonton Oilers.
