WATCH: Adin Hill showered with popcorn by angry Dallas Stars fans as Vegas Golden Knights take 3-0 series lead

Vegas Golden Knights netminder Adin Hill made 34 saves, shutting out the Dallas Stars in Game 3 on Tuesday to help his team move one step closer to a spot in the Stanley Cup final. It also marked the first-ever shutout win for the Knights' goalie in the playoffs.

The Western Conference Finals Game 3 was an utter disappointment for Dallas Stars fans at the American Airlines Center. They were frustrated and angry with the lackluster performance of their team.

The frustration from Stars fans reached a crescendo during the end of the second period. Fans started to throw objects on the ice, resulting in officials calling the period off with 21 seconds remaining.

As the Golden Knights returned to the ice to conclude the rest of the second period, netminder Adin Hill was bombarded with popcorn.

Here's the video of the same:

The Dallas Stars fans' frustration was obvious, but throwing popcorn on the player at the American Airlines Center was uncalled for and a shambolic act. When asked about the popcorn incident Adin Hill said:

"I guess everything was hitting me tonight"
