Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce attend Game 4 of Stanley Cup Final between Panthers and Oilers

(AP Photo/Natacha Pisarenko, File) SUNRISE, Fla. — Pop superstar Taylor Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce were among the celebrities that flocked to Amerant Bank Arena on Thursday to watch Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers. Kelce, a Super Bowl-winning tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, is a known hockey fan along with his brother Jason Kelce. And ever since Swift and Kelce began their high-profile romance in 2023, the 14-time Grammy Award winning singer has been known to pop in on big sporting events — including the last two Super Bowls — and cause an excited frenzy for fans. There were rumblings ahead of Thursday's game that the couple might attend the final. A helicopter landed near Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, ahead of the game. The VIP entrance to the area was also closed off and the media elevator was not available to be used for a period of time before pregame warmups began. Swift recently announced that she regained control over her entire body of work. In a lengthy note posted to her official website, Swift said that all the music she's ever made now belongs to her after she has purchased her catalog of recordings — originally released through Big Machine Records — from their most recent owner, the private equity firm Shamrock Capital. Over the last few years, Swift has been rerecording and releasing her early albums in an attempt to regain control of her music. Other celebs in attendance included former Miami Dolphins star defensive end Jason Taylor, who banged the drum before the game. Miami Heat captain Bam Adebayo was joined by former Heat captain Udonis Haslem on the drum on Monday. The defending champion Panthers led the best-of-seven series 2-1 heading into Thursday's game.

Dairy Queen Canada offers Oilers fans a way to chirp back in sweet campaign
A viral moment during the Stanley Cup Playoffs is taking a sweet twist - allowing Edmonton Oilers fans a chance to get under the skin of the Florida Panthers. Panthers forward Brad Marchand was caught sneaking a mid-game snack during intermission in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final. It sent the internet into a flurry with many believing he was eating a spoon of a Dairy Queen (DQ) Blizzard treat. Marchand later said it was a spoon of honey, but declared a liking for DQ's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Blizzard. DQ Canada is playing into the fun with a 'chirp back' for Oilers fans in a series of events in and out of the arena. Some of the teases include: a renamed Blizzard called the Chocolate Chirp Cookie Dough which will be sold in stores; free custom fan signs that will be handed out in Edmonton's Ice District; social media chirps aimed at Marchand; and LED truck ads near the arena and player hotels. The campaign will run from Thursday to Saturday.

Connor Hellebuyck wins Hart, Vezina awards after stellar season with Winnipeg Jets
Connor Hellebuyck will have to make room for some more hardware. The Winnipeg Jets goaltender won the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player Thursday. He also captured the Vezina Trophy as the league's top netminder for a third time. Hellebuyck is the first goalie to claim the Hart since Montreal's Carey Price a decade ago. The 32-year-old from Commerce, Mich., topped the stats page this season with a 47-12-3 record, a .925 save percentage and a 2.00 goals-against average to go along with eight shutouts. Tampa Bay Lightning winger Nikita Kucherov and Edmonton Oilers centre Leon Draisaitl were the other Hart finalists. Kucherov won the Ted Lindsay Award as league MVP last week in a vote among members of the NHL Players' Association. Hellebuyck joins a list of Hart-winning goaltenders that also includes Roy Worters (1928-29), Chuck Rayner (1949-50), Al Rollins (1953-54), Jacques Plante (1961-62), Dominik Hasek (1996-97, 1997-98) and Jose Theodore (2001-02). Hellebuyck beat out Lightning netminder Andrei Vasilevskiy and Los Angeles Kings counterpart Darcy Kuemper for the Vezina after also winning in 2020 and again last season. The Hart is voted on by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association, while the Vezina is decided by the league's 32 general managers. Hellebuyck's impressive regular-season numbers, however, once again didn't translate to the playoffs. Despite picking up two shutouts, he won just six of 13 starts in posting an .866 save percentage and a 3.08 GAA as the Jets beat the St. Louis Blues in a dramatic seven-game series before falling 4-2 to the Dallas Stars in the second round. Hellebuyck, who was the starting goaltender for the United States at February's 4 Nations Face-Off tournament when the Americans lost to Canada in a knife-edged final, had an .870 save percentage in the 2023-24 post-season after putting up a .886 mark the previous spring in consecutive five-game losses in the first round. Kucherov led the NHL with 121 points in 2024-25 and tied Colorado Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon for the most assists with 84. Draisaitl led the league with 52 goals and tied for third in points with Boston Bruins winger David Pastrnak with 106. Vasilevskiy went 38-20-4 with a .921 save percentage and a 2.18 GAA for Tampa, which lost to the Florida Panthers in five games in the opening round of the playoffs. He also picked up six regular-season shutouts. Kuemper owned a 31-11-7 mark – including five shutouts – with a .921 save percentage and a 2.02 GAA in his first season with Los Angeles. The Kings beat the Oilers twice to open their first-round series before losing four straight.
