Evander Kane funnily taunts a Golden Knights fan.
Throughout these playoffs, it's becoming more common to see NHL players and NHL executives engaging with fans, not in the best way.
People have seen Tanner Jeannot of the Tampa Bay Lightning engaging with a Maple Leafs fan while in the penalty box, and general manager Kyle Dubas in a yelling match with Lightning fans while on the road.
During tonight's game against the Vegas Golden Knights, Oilers forward Evander Kane responded to the Golden Knights fan harmlessly and funnily while he received the middle finger treatment.
The energy in this game was high, fights were common, and the Golden Knight fans were quite angry since their team did not perform well after beating the Oilers 6-4 in game 1.
I expect this series to continue to heat up and spin out of control as this rivalry builds. The series switches to Edmonton for Games 3 and 4. Both deadlocked at one game apiece.
