On a thrilling Friday night, the Edmonton Oilers dramatically kept their Stanley Cup dreams alive, securing a crucial win over the Florida Panthers.
This victory marked their third consecutive win after a daunting 0-3 deficit in the series, positioning them to potentially become the first NHL team to ever stage a comeback from such a deficit in the Stanley Cup Finals.
Amidst the high stakes of the finals, a surprising figure emerged as a so-called “good luck charm” for the team. During the Western Conference Finals, a woman named Kait gained unexpected fame after she flashed the crowd, an act that was caught on camera and quickly went viral.
Since that moment, Kait has been in the spotlight, making several media appearances. Her newfound fame took a significant turn last night when she achieved a major milestone by appearing in Playboy magazine.
Playboy celebrated her involvement with the Oilers, tweeting, “Meet Kait, the Oilers good luck charm. The @EdmontonOilers might not have the Stanley Cup just yet, but with Kait cheering them on, they’re unstoppable.”

In a candid interview, Kait reflected on the incident without regret. Speaking to the New York Post, she said, “Hey everybody, Oilers girl — actually my name’s Kait, but here we are. So I’ve thought long and hard about what I wanted to say to everybody… But I just wanted to say, you could be the most perfect, Godly [expletive] person in the world, you could save kittens from a river if they’re drowning, someone’s still gonna hate you. So you know what? At the end of the day, I got drunk and whipped my [expletive] out at an Oilers game and they went viral, [expletive] you if you don’t like it. Woo! Go Oilers!”
As the Oilers prepare for Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals set for Monday night, the excitement continues to build.
Kait’s story adds an unusual but memorable layer to what is already a historic playoff run for the Oilers.
Her unabashed spirit and sudden rise to fame have captivated fans and non-fans alike, making the upcoming game an even more eagerly anticipated event.
