Oilers fans get a Father’s Day weekend gift they won’t forget at the Stanley Cup Final
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - Father's Day came early for Shawn Mullin and his 9-year-old daughter, Audrey.
Despite the Oilers falling behind 3-0 in the Stanley Cup Final against the Florida Panthers, they decided to make the six-plus-hour drive to Edmonton from their home in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, for Game 4 on Saturday night.
About halfway through, their car clipped a deer and went into ditch. The deer ran away, the bumper was damaged but the car was drivable, so they continued on their journey.
Upon arrival in Edmonton, they had to switch hotel rooms because of bed bugs and Mullin worried the trip was cursed. The line was too long to see Shania Twain perform at the pregame concert, but what happened next changed everything.
