Where's Lauren? Fans question Connor McDavid's wife's absence during pivotal Stanley Cup showdown as she skips 2 games in a row
While Connor McDavid battles for the Stanley Cup, his wife, Lauren Kyle, is making headlines of her own (Getty Images) As the Edmonton Oilers fight for the Stanley Cup, not everyone tied to the team is watching from the stands. While Game 2 against the Florida Panthers played out with high stakes on the ice, team captain Connor McDavid's wife, Lauren Kyle, was making her presence felt halfway across the world—in a very different way. Lauren Kyle skips Stanley Cup Final Game 2 to support Leon Draisaitl 's fiancée at her bachelorette getaway Instead of joining the crowd at Rogers Place or the Panthers' arena, Lauren Kyle remained in Mykonos, Greece, where she fulfilled her role as a bridesmaid for Celeste Desjardins , the fiancée of Oilers star Leon Draisaitl. The tropical escape is more than just a getaway—it's part of Desjardins' bachelorette celebration, with other WAGs (wives and girlfriends of players), including Mikayla Nurse, wife of defenseman Darnell Nurse, joining in the festivities. Although she's miles from the Stanley Cup action, Lauren made it clear she's still cheering on her husband and the team. She posted a sleek Instagram Story showing Game 2 streaming on a laptop, with glasses of wine and the glowing city lights of Mykonos in the background. '@ a view with a view,' she captioned it, a nod both to the scenic skyline and the screen showing her team in action. Balancing tradition and team spirit This isn't the first time Lauren has missed playoff action during the Oilers' Cup run—she was also absent for Game 1. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

Some believe the captain's wife should be by his side during such a critical moment, while others applaud her for standing by her bridesmaid commitments and supporting another member of the Oilers' inner circle. Still, Lauren's remote show of support reflects the modern dynamic between athletes and their partners—balancing personal obligations with unwavering support, even when thousands of miles apart.
