Enraged Golden Knights Fan Flips off Evander Kane As Tensions Flare in Game 2

Things got heated between the Oilers and Golden Knights in the second period on Saturday night, during which one Vegas fan could be seen showing Evander Kane the double bird. 

The Game 2 clash was leaning heavily in the favor of Edmonton, who jumped out to a 5-0 lead, when tensions flared and gloves were dropped.

After a fight between Oilers’ Brett Kulak and Vegas’ Brett Howden broke out at center ice, the rest of the two teams got into a scuffle.

Kane and Knights’ forward Keegan Kolesar were separated by referees, at which point the Vegas fan could be seen shouting at Edmonton’s forward and leaning up against the glass to expose two middle fingers straight in his face.

Kane has a knack for getting under his opponents’ skin, and it seems that extends to opposing fanbases as well. Not only did he wind Kolesar up with his antics after the whistle, but he also managed to get the Golden Knights fan riled up, too. 

The bespectacled individual didn’t hold back one bit, and Kane had a huge smile on his face after appearing to make eye contact with the irate fan before skating back to Edmonton’s bench. 

The Oilers scored the first five goals of the game on the road at the T-Mobile Arena, leaving the Golden Knights’ crowd on edge. This individual saw her opportunity to unload some steam, and hilariously elected to do so by flipping off Kane.
