Oilers Corey Perry gets blasted following behind the scenes footage gets posted
Veteran winger Corey Perry faced a lot of criticism after locker-room footage from Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals surfaced.
The Stanley Cup Finals were intense, with fans either disappointed that the Panthers came back into the series or, like the Oilers, upset by the loss.
The Oilers' locker room was silent after the game, the footage showed the Oilers sitting in pain.
Fans quickly targeted Perry, blaming him for continuing what some call a "Stanley Cup curse." Despite having been to the Finals five times, Perry has only won once, in 2007, which has made him a frequent joke and curse among NHL fans.
No player deserves such harsh treatment for a team's loss, but that didn't stop the fans.
