Evander Kane and Corey Perry go after each other on the bench
During the Edmonton Oilers win over the Calgary Flames, it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, as Evander Kane and Corey Perry got into a heated argument on the Oilers bench.
The Edmonton Oilers have been filled with drama this season, starting with the very beginning of the year when they were forced to fire their head coach after an atrocious start. After that, they sent their starting goaltender to the minors. Finally, they were able to crawl out of the basement of the division, and now it seems like they are the contending team that many predicted they could be before the season started.That is, if they can remain cohesive as a unit going into playoffs. During the Oilers versus Flames game last night, Evander Kane and Corey Perry got into a heated argument on the bench. Take a look.
Things were getting spicy on the bench between Evander Kane and Corey Perry!
Kevin Bieksa went on to speculate that this heated argument was the result of a lazy play by Evander Kane, which Corey Perry was holding him accountable for and was fed up with him making.
here's more on the corey perry and evander kane argument. as kevin bieksa speculates here, it looks like perry was upset about a lazy turnover down low by kane.
Kane was involved with some bench drama just a few games ago, as the cameras caught him arguing with Leon Draisaitl. There has been speculation that Kane can be a difficult teammate in the dressing room, and this would be the worst time for this to happen to the Oilers.
We will see if the Edmonton Oilers can get behind each other in the final few games before the playoffs.
