Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman fires a shot at the Toronto Maple Leafs
Former Toronto Maple Leafs forward Zach Hyman didn't hold back and fired a shot at his former team, following the Edmonton Oilers Stanley Cup final playoff berth.
Zach Hyman has always been a fan favorite. Before joining the Oilers, he spent six seasons with the Maple Leafs.
Last night, the Oilers defeated the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Finals, earning their place in the Stanley Cup Finals. They could become the first Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993. Nearly all Canadian hockey fans will be rooting for the Oilers in the Finals.
In his post-game comments, Hyman was asked about Ottawa Senators' fans cheering for the Oilers. He responded with a playful jab at his former team:

A tough challenge awaits the Oilers in the next round. The Florida Panthers have been strong, defeating the New York Rangers, Boston Bruins, and Tampa Bay Lightning in the earlier rounds.
The Oilers, on the other hand, have beaten the Dallas Stars, Vancouver Canucks, and Los Angeles Kings. Hyman has been a key player, scoring 18 points (14 goals) in 18 games. He even scored the game-winning goal last night against the Stars:
Both the Oilers and Panthers will have some rest before game one, set for Saturday.
