Edmonton Oilers fans get into Brawl Following Win Over the Montreal Canadiens
Fans at Rogers Place in Edmonton got into a scuffle following last night's game between the Oilers and Montreal Canadiens
Apparently an overtime win against the Montreal Canadiens last night wasn't enough to keep Edmonton Oilers fans content. A brawl broke out at Rogers Place as people were leaving the arena, and the video shows it was mostly Oiler fan versus Oiler fan.
As the arena started to empty in Edmonton, something seemed to set off a couple of people, and punches started to be thrown. At one point, one person takes a huge punch to the jaw. It didn't slow him much, however as he got right back up and started into it again.
No word on what caused the skirmish or whether anyone was arrested for it. It was the Oilers Leon Draisaitl who scored the OT winner on the powerplay to ensure the victory. At one point, Edmonton was up 2-0, but the Habs scored two in the third to send it into extra time.
