Big surprise for the Oilers tonight in Florida: It's embarrassing for the league
The Edmonton Oilers and Connor McDavid are indeed in for a big surprise tonight at the Florida Panthers' arena for Game 7.
Even though they won't be on home ice, the Oilers will apparently have an extremely impressive number of Edmonton fans in the stands in Florida.
This is another powerful message sent to Gary Bettman and the National Hockey League.
Panthers fans are selling their tickets for Game 7, and Oilers fans are buying them: many are traveling to Florida
It's rather embarrassing for the league, but we love it.
While Florida fans have indeed been selling their tickets in large numbers, Edmonton fans have snapped them all up.
We're likely to see a lot of Oilers fans in the Panthers' arena tonight.
Check out an example of a group of Edmonton fans who have literally chartered a flight to Fort Lauderdale. (FLL)
Wow! And this is just the tip of the iceberg.
We can't wait to see the result in the Panthers' arena tonight, but Canadian fans are likely to be loud.
Some fans have posted messages like «Stop selling your tickets to opposing team fans!», but clearly, it's already too late for them.
Here's another proof that hockey in Canada is different!
