The Edmonton Oilers weren't exactly thrilled with the return of the Green Men in their second round series vs the Vancouver Canucks.

These iconic Vancouver Canucks fans, known for their green spandex suits, made a comeback this season. Originally meant to be a one-time thing, the mischievous duo made a reappearance during the playoffs, showing up for Game 1 of the second round and causing a stir in the penalty box.

Their antics didn't hold back. While Connor Brown served his penalty, the Green Men targeted Evander Kane with a sign that read, "Evander What's the parlay tonight?"�a reference to allegations made by Kane's ex-wife.

The sign made it onto Hockey Night in Canada, but it seems the Oilers weren't amused. In fact, there was even a formal complaint filed by the Oilers to the NHL, according to reports from CHEK's Rick Dhaliwal.

It's not the first time NHL teams have taken issue with Sully and Force. Back in 2011, during their prime, they were instructed to refrain from doing handstands or touching the glass after receiving complaints from other teams. Despite the Oilers' complaint this time around, the Green Men didn't plan to attend any more games in Round 2, rendering the ban somewhat irrelevant.
