(New York, NY) — The Dallas Stars hockey team is apologizing for the actions of their fans.

Drinks and food were thrown onto the ice during last night’s playoff game against Las Vegas. One fan dumped popcorn on the Golden Knights’ goalie as he came off the rink.

“I guess everything was hitting me tonight,” joked Adill Hill, who made 34 saves for his first NHL playoff shutout.

The Stars lost 4-0 as the Golden Knights moved to one victory from a conference finals sweep.

“Everybody in the building was frustrated,” Stars coach Peter DeBoer said.

In a statement, the Stars say that the actions of a few fans do not represent the city or the organization.

“On behalf of the Dallas Stars organization, I would like to apologize to the Vegas Golden Knights and the National Hockey League for the actions of a few of our spectators at last night’s game. Their actions were unacceptable and put the safety of the players and fans at risk,” said Brad Alberts, Dallas Stars president and CEO.

Game 4 is Thursday night in Dallas, with the Golden Knights up 3-0 in the series.
