He got a ride to Toronto and then caught a flight to Edmonton.
Commenting on the same, Scotty said, 'He wanted me to watch one game.' He also added, 'You never know when you're going to be back at these situations. Travelling's not easy for anybody. It's even worse for guys like me.' While speaking of his presence at the game, Stan shared, 'It's really been a pleasure for me to have him here, just as a fan essentially. Like, he's the ultimate hockey fan.'

While addressing his father's love for the sport, Stan shared, 'He's watched more hockey than, I think, anybody in this world. He's 91, and he still watches every game every night during the regular season and playoffs, and he watched the Memorial Cup the other day. He just loves watching hockey, and I think when you watch that much hockey, you have observations about the game. He certainly has experience of being through so many of these types of situations.

He also added, 'So, I would say, it's not like he's sitting there giving me feedback on every game, but we talk about it, and I learn a lot just through those conversations. It's not so much specific advice. It's just a conversation, and then you reflect on what you talked about, and you realise, 'That's something maybe I can bring up when I talk to our coaches.' So, yeah, I think he's more of a fan right now than anything, but it's great to see him interacting with all the media, because I know he enjoys that at this stage of his life.

Andy Reid's honest confession about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce as ‘The Life of a Showgirl' album becomes NFL talking point
Taylor Swift's album reveal takes over the NFL (Image via: Getty Images) Taylor Swift 's latest album reveal didn't just dominate the music world but also became a hot topic across the NFL . And in Kansas City, no one reacted more warmly than Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, whose candid words about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce had the gentle humor of a grandfather and the sincerity of someone genuinely rooting for their happiness. Andy Reid shares genuine support for Taylor Swift–Travis Kelce relationship Reid, 66, was asked about Swift's surprise The Life of a Showgirl album announcement during Kelce's New Heights podcast. His reply wasn't the standard, guarded response of a coach in the spotlight — it was personal and warm. 'My grandkids will be all over it,' he told The Athletic's Nate Taylor. 'Both of them care about each other and what a plus that is. The older you get, you want these guys to have someone they can settle down with. I think it's a neat deal for both of them.' It was a rare moment where football took a back seat to human connection — a reminder that even in the NFL, relationships matter. Taylor Swift's 'The Life of a Showgirl' breaks new ground with album announcement on NFL platform Swift's 12:12 a.m. announcement on Kelce's podcast wasn't just romantic — it was a calculated first in her career. The pop superstar has never built a major album launch around a partner before. Choosing the NFL's most high-profile tight end as her platform turned the reveal into both a marketing masterstroke and a cultural event. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Rabh Aldoyah: New Container Houses – Take A Look At The Prices! Container homes | Search ads Learn More Undo According to Business Insider, Swift's presence at NFL games last season boosted female viewership under 35 and sent Kelce's jersey sales soaring by triple digits. Now, she's leveraging that NFL audience directly to promote The Life of a Showgirl, making the line between sports and entertainment almost invisible. Will 'The Life of a Showgirl' match the magic of Swift's heartbreak classics? Swift's most successful albums have been born from heartbreak. The Tortured Poets Department sold 2.6 million copies in its first week and topped the Billboard 200 for 17 weeks. The Life of a Showgirl, however, is built on love, energy, and optimism — a creative risk in an industry where heartache often drives sales.

But with Kelce's star power, Reid's public approval, and Swift's unmatched marketing instincts, this album rollout may well become one of the defining pop culture moments of the year.
