All hell breaks lose in Edmonton: Zadorov and Kane exchange fists
The Canucks and the opportunity to end the Oilers' season during game six, but Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl wanted another chance to visit Vancouver.
The Oilers were all over the Canucks, and as the game neared its end, all hell broke loose. Both teams, number 91s Evander Kane and Nikita Zadorov, had built up quite a rivalry since Zadorov sent Kane to his bench with a massive hit.
By the looks of it, Kane wanted his revenge as he went after the Canucks' big defenseman in the game's last moments. As a result of this sequence, the league gave nothing less than four-game misconduct:
We got another Zadorov/Kane battle late in the third period

The fans in Edmonton were ecstatic that their team managed to return; a fan in the arena even graced the ice with a beautiful piece of meat. This particular sequence is currently going viral on the internet even though nobody has an idea of its clear meaning:
The Canucks will have another opportunity to end the Oilers' season on Monday, as the series moves back to Vancouver. Who's your pick to meet with the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference finals?
