PHOTO: Fans in San Jose wearing Oilers McDavid jerseys for some reason
A group of fans in the front row at Wednesday's game between the San Jose Sharks and Calgary Flames in San Jose are wearing Edmonton Oilers jerseys with top NHL prospect Connor McDavid's name taped on the back.

We wouldn't normally expect to see Oilers fans at a Sharks-Flames game, so they're likely Flames fans trolling Edmonton about the Oilers' chances of finishing last and selecting McDavid first overall.
Spending money on all of those jerseys and coordinating the McDavid nameplates takes true commitment. On the other hand, if those actually are Oilers fans at a game between the Flames and Sharks, that's just bizarre.
