With the Florida Panthers enjoying a comfortable lead late in their series-turning Game 3 victory over the Edmonton Oilers, the Stanley Cup Final turned into chaos. When the smoke cleared and the dust settled, several players earned ejections and the losing Oilers had racked up an absurd 85 penalty minutes.
It's not a real surprise that things got heated as there's plenty of animosity between these two teams following last year's epic seven-game battle and Edmonton's desire to create something productive out of a lopsided loss. This is all preamble to say that Kasperi Kapanen, bounced on a game misconduct, like every other visitor exiting the ice in hostile territory on Monday night, was given an earful. It also looks like he was given a cupfull.
