Oilers fan goes viral for cringe-worthy moment in Game 3 loss to Panthers in Stanley Cup Final
NY Post
An Oilers fan’s apparent blunder stole the spotlight Thursday during Edmonton’s Game 3 loss to the Florida Panthers in the Stanley Cup Final.
With a little more than a minute remaining in the first period, cameras caught an Edmonton fan cheering moments after Panthers center Sam Reinhart scored the opening goal at Rodgers Place in Canada to give Florida a 1-0 lead.
The ESPN broadcast of the curious series of events sparked a flurry of responses on social media.
“LMFAO, Oilers fan too far gone to realize she’s cheering for the wrong team.” X user Drew Livingston wrote.
“Why was this Oilers fan celebrating the Florida goal?” The Funhouse account wrote.
Given the Oilers’ 2-0 series deficit entering Thursday’s game, conceding the opening goal would be disheartening for the majority of fans.

From the perch of Mika Zibanejad, this has been different. The Rangers still lost plenty of games at the start of the season. Still unintentionally constructed the shaky foundation that has since cratered all the way to last place in the Eastern Conference.
The Yankees are signaling a wiliness to do not just one opt-out, but two opt-outs for Cody Bellinger in continuing efforts to bridge the long-standing issue of length of contract.
