Almost born at an Oilers Game: a baby makes a surprise hockey debut

This was quite the news to over eighteen thousand hockey fans at Rogers Place in Edmonton. On Saturday night, the Oilers lost at home against the Knights, but the big talk in the arena was a woman who went into labour at the game and almost gave birth there!

The baby was reportedly born at a nearby hospital, but what a story! Unfortunately, the Oilers lost, but I think the team should give that kid a lifetime supply of tickets!
