TIL: there might be such a thing as a feline hockey fan.

A black cat was seen trotting around the ice before Friday's matchup between the San Jose Sharks and the Nashville Predators — providing both teams with an excellent excuse for losing.

The Sharks, who were on home ice, ended up coming out on top, beating the Predators 5-2. So maybe this is a lucky black cat?

All joking aside, black cats aren't actually unlucky (obviously). In fact, this myth often hurts their chances of finding homes. Adopt one yourself — you could end up with a furry hockey fan like this guy.
