Moment of silence for Adam Johnson completely ruined by Oilers fan

Earlier today, the hockey community was deeply saddened by the news of Adam Johnson's passing following an injury sustained in a game yesterday.

Tonight, on the eve of the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames Heritage Classic, both teams paid tribute to Johnson's memory with a moment of silence.

However, a somber moment turned disappointing as one Oilers fan, apparently unaware of the significance, disrupted the silence with a shout of "Let's go Oilers."

This disrespectful incident was captured on camera and swiftly criticized. It's crucial to remember that the actions of one individual do not represent an entire fan base and should not tarnish the reputation of respectful fans.
