Edmonton Oilers forward Warren Foegele made the most unlikely Kobe Bryant tribute ahead of Saturday’s Game 4 of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final.
With the Oilers entering an elimination game, Foegele needed all the good vibes he could muster to help get his team’s first win of the championship series.
In order to add a spark to his game, he wore a shirt that featured a photo of Bryant wearing a Wayne Gretzky’s Oilers jersey on it.
That’s a heck of a way to motivate yourself to play some hockey and pay tribute to an all-time athlete in the process, as honoring Bryant rocking your team’s jersey (your team’s all-time best player at that) has to get your blood pumping in the best way possible.
