Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift enjoy rare night out at Stanley Cup Final Game 4
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift might be enchanted with hockey now. The star couple was on hand at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Panthers and Oilers, won 5-4 by Edmonton in overtime, evening the series at two games apiece. Advertisement Kelce wore a red top with red shorts as he rocked a white and red 'Palm Tree Crew' Panthers hat while Swift appeared to keep her look neutral in an off-white top and bottom. Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift look on during the Oilers' 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final. Getty Images The two were even spotted chatting it up with NHL icon Wayne Gretzky. Swift, 35, has had plenty of viral hockey moments in life, including a reveal of the 2009-10 Predators then-new third jerseys during a concert in Nashville and, four years later, taking a picture with former Hurricanes star Joel Skinner, even holding up his jersey. She also donned Islanders gear in a skit with Jimmy Fallon for the 'Tonight Show' in 2015. Kelce, who previously posted about his love of playoff hockey, and his brother Jason debated in October on the 'New Heights' podcast about which NHL players could also play in the NFL, and they named Oilers star Connor McDavid as one who could. Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift and Wayne Gretzky sit together during the second period of the Oilers' Game 4 win over the Panthers. Getty Images In April, a source told Page Six that Swift and Kelce have enjoyed a 'special' offseason, which has largely been low-key after the Chiefs lost the Super Bowl to the Eagles. Advertisement 'They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them,' the source said. The two were spotted last month in Philadelphia to celebrate Mother's Day, though before that, they opted out of the Met Gala in New York due to scheduling issues. Kelce, who announced earlier this offseason that he is coming back to the Chiefs for at least one more year, will likely have more of Swift at games this year as she is not touring this coming season. 'Taylor is really looking forward to the upcoming NFL season,' a source told People on Thursday. Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are in attendance during the Oilers' overtime win in Game 4 of the 2025 Stanley Cup. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect 'This fall will be completely different. It's the first season where she's not constantly flying back and forth or working around an entire touring calendar.'

Leon Draisaitl scores another OT goal as Oilers beat Panthers in Stanley Cup Game 4 to even series
Leon Draisaitl (center) celebrates after scoring the game-winning overtime goal in the Oilers' 5-4 overtime win in Game 4 of the NHL finals. SUNRISE, Fla. — Falling behind three goals after 20 minutes, the Edmonton Oilers scored three of their own over the next 20 to erase their deficit. They took the lead, only to give up the tying goal to the Florida Panthers in the final seconds of regulation to send another game between the hockey heavyweights to overtime. Advertisement Riding the waves of emotion through what's turning into an epic showdown in the Stanley Cup Final, the Oilers beat the Panthers 5-4 in Game 4 on Thursday night to tie the series on Leon Draisaitl's NHL playoff-record fourth OT goal. 'Games like that, it's exhausting — it's a roller coaster,' Edmonton coach Kris Knoblauch said. 'Two good teams playing as hard as they are, playing the right way. Obviously with what's on the line, it's stressful. There's a lot on the line, but it is fun and I think our guys are having fun, enjoying this moment.' They're enjoying it much more tied at two games apiece than they would have down 3-1 and on the brink of losing to Florida in the final for a second consecutive year. They go home to Western Canada for Game 5 on Saturday night all even. Advertisement 'Better than it could have been, but obviously a long way to go,' said Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who scored the Oilers' first goal in Game 4. 'We're just excited to get back home and play in front of our fans, and Saturday night is going to be pretty fun.' Draisaitl's goal 11:18 into OT — the fourth session of extra hockey between these teams — came after Jake Walman put Edmonton ahead with six minutes left in the third period and Sam Reinhart tied it for Florida with 19.5 seconds left.

AP Pickard's play paved the way for the once-in-a-century comeback, with Nugent-Hopkins, Darnell Nurse and Vasily Podkolzin all scoring in the second. The Oilers held on, went ahead on Walman's goal and dealt with more adversity when Reinhart sent it to overtime — the first final since 2013 with three of the first four games needing extra hockey and the fifth all time. 'There were chances everywhere,' Tkachuk said. 'Both teams had good looks. I mean, one of their players it hits off a skate and hits the post. We got lucky there. It's a game of inches.' Advertisement SUNRISE, Fla. — Leon Draisaitl scored in overtime for the fourth time this playoffs, and the Edmonton Oilers beat the Florida Panthers 5-4 in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night to tie the series, erasing a three-goal deficit and bouncing back after allowing the late tying goal. Jake Walman gave the Oilers their first lead with 6:24 left in the third period, before Sam Reinhart scored with 19.5 seconds left to send it to overtime. Three of the first four games of this final have needed extra time to be settled, the first time that has happened since 2013 and fifth time in NHL history. Draisaitl's goal 11:18 into OT — the fourth session of extra hockey between these teams — sent the series back to Western Canada all even. Advertisement Game 5 of what's turning into a classic back-and-forth series between two hockey heavyweights is Saturday night in Edmonton. The Oilers became the first road team to rally from down three to win a game in the final since the Montreal Canadiens against the Seattle Metropolitans in 1919. Only six teams have come back from down three in the final in NHL history, the last time in 2006. Edmonton is very much in it now, even after it looked like it would be blown out of the series.

Advertisement Coach Kris Knoblauch pulled Stuart Skinner after his starter allowed those three goals on 17 shots in the first, when the ice was tilted against him and his teammates did not have much of a pushback. In went Calvin Pickard, the journeyman backup who won all six of his starts this playoffs before getting injured. Pickard made some acrobatic saves, stopping the first 18 shots he faced and paving the way for a once-in-a-century comeback. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored on Edmonton's first power play, Darnell Nurse beat Sergei Bobrovsky with another shot up high and Vasily Podkolzin made it 3-all with less than five minutes left in the second. Advertisement With Draisaitl in the penalty box to start the third, Oilers were on their heels for several minutes and relied on Pickard to keep the score tied. He turned aside every shot he faced until Walman fired the puck past Bobrovsky to silence a vast majority of the crowd and incite a roar out of the Edmonton fans among those in attendance along with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Panthers fans had one more chance to cheer when Reinhart tied it late. Then Draisaitl quieted them again. With Hockey Hall of Famers Wayne Gretzky, Jaromir Jagr and Henrik Lundqvist also in the building, the Oilers made sure they would not go quietly and fall behind 3-1 in the final like they did last year. They forced Game 7 then but ultimately fell short, with Florida winning the Cup for the first time in franchise history. Now each of these teams is a couple of victories away from being champions.
