Gross if true.

Controversial NHL forward Evander Kane has shown a knack for scoring clutch goals in the postseason since joining the Edmonton Oilers last season. He would come through in the clutch once again in Game 4 of their opening round Stanley Cup Playoffs series against the Los Angeles Kings, tying the game at four late in the third period; Edmonton would go on to win in overtime and knot the series at two games apiece. 

Earlier this season, Kane would befriend a young Oilers fan named Cecily Eklund who is battling brain cancer: 

She was also a special guest of Kane's for Game 3 of the series in Los Angeles. However, Kane has made a stunning allegation against a particular Kings fan, claiming that the young girl was subject to harassment and was even spat upon. He wrote on social media:

"simply_cecily_rose got to go on an amazing road trip to LA last week that created some incredibly fun memories. But some of her experience in LA specifically at Game 3 of the game was not. I'm disgusted and appalled at what happened to this amazing little girl in the stands and in a women's restroom where she was harassed for wearing her jersey and was spit upon by an LA fan for doing so. This type of behavior is gross and completely unacceptable. For any young girl especially someone battling brain cancer to be treated in such a manner is pathetic. Grow up and as this smart young lady always says BE KIND!"

Kane would then show a particularly classless screenshot of a response from someone on Instagram:

If the allegation from Kane is true, then it absolutely was a classless and truly disgusting action from that particular fan. Harassing a young fan and spitting on them is unconscionable, and certainly not a representation of Kings and hockey fans as a whole.
