Watch: Comedian Nikki Glaser leaves Evander Kane unimpressed with Oilers dig at 2024 ESPY Awards
At the 2024 ESPY Awards, comedian Nikki Glaser made jokes about the Edmonton Oilers that left Evander Kane unimpressed. Evander Kane maintained a blank face during Nikki Glaser's last few lines about his team losing in the Stanley Cup Final.
Glaser joked,
"Nothing will stand in the way of these incredible athletes in their pursuit of greatness. I mean, except the Florida Panthers. But, boy, Connor, that must have hurt to lose a game of ice hockey to a place that doesn't even have ice."
She continued,
"For now, the only Stanley Cup Conner will get to hold is the one his wife asked him to grab out of the cabinet."
The Oilers had a strong regular season and fought hard in the playoffs. They defeated the Los Angeles Kings, Vancouver Canucks, and Dallas Stars on their way to reaching the Stanley Cup Finals. In the Finals, they forced Game 7 but lost 2-1 to the Florida Panthers.
Evander Kane only played two games in the series, with limited ice time due to a sports hernia.

Kane and Teigen posted snaps from the event on their Instagram stories. In one of the videos, the couple was in their car heading to the ESPYs, and Kane included a ‘fire’ emoji while posting the clip.
Kane donned an exquisite designer suit jacket that easily caught the eye, especially against the red carpet background. The suit had artistic dark blue and black shades with some metallic and gold shimmering parts. For accessories, he wore a chain necklace, bracelet, and black dress shoes. The outfit was provided by Tom Marchitelli of Gentleman’s Playbook, an athleisure wear company for men.
Mara Teigen also posted a video where Kane was walking down the red carpet, which Kane also posted on his account, tagging Tom Marchitelli and Gentleman’s Playbook.
Teigen wore a white floor-length dress with a high slit. It had one shoulder strap with sequin detail across and extending down the side. Teigen complemented her look with a fine silver and stone necklace, earrings, and a purse.
