The Edmonton Oilers emerged victorious against the Kings in an exciting game, delighting those who were lucky enough to attend the match live in Los Angeles. However, Oilers fans who were unable to be there in person were left disappointed. Thankfully, NHL teams often organize watch parties for fans to support their team remotely.

Unfortunately, some Oilers fans took things too far during a watch party event.

The watch party reached maximum capacity, leaving some fans unable to attend. In a desperate attempt to join the celebration, a group of fans broke through the gate, resulting in injuries.

Several videos posted on social media show fans breaking down barricades and running over security personnel.

Law enforcement was able to secure the area shortly after, but the damage was already done.

This kind of behavior is unacceptable and puts the safety of fans and personnel at risk. While it's understandable that fans are passionate about their team, it's important to remember that respect and safety are paramount.

Let's hope that fans can learn from this incident and show their support for the Oilers in a safe and positive way going forward.
