Other players, like Oilers’ forward Zack Hyman, were visibly laughing about the incident as they hugged each other and provided the home fans with a celly con queso. Thompson later took the blame for losing his focus and allowing the goal, though he still appeared mystified: "I've never seen that before,” the goalie told reporters.

Capitals goalie Logan Thompson said he was distracted by a tray of cheese-covered nachos thrown on the ice while Oilers winger Corey Perry scored on him in Edmonton on Tuesday night.
