Oilers Score Controversial Goal After Nachos Thrown on Ice

During a recent NHL game, the Edmonton Oilers scored a goal with an unusual twist when a fan threw a plate of nachos onto the ice, creating a distraction for Washington Capitals goalie Logan Thompson. Corey Perry capitalized on the moment, scoring off a pass from Leon Draisaitl, which narrowed the Capitals' lead to 3-2. Thompson protested, claiming the nachos distracted him, but the referees ruled that the nachos did not interfere with the play, allowing the goal to stand. Capitals coach Spencer Carbery expressed his surprise, noting he had never seen nachos on the ice in an NHL game before. Despite the bizarre circumstances, the Capitals held on to win the game, and fans humorously speculated about the fan's decision to toss the nachos. Perry, however, maintained that he was focused on the game and didn’t notice the nachos at all.
