He often wears jerseys of the cities in which he gives concerts. He was even invited as a guest speaker on EA Sports' NHL20 and performed during a few NHL events over the years.

Snoop Dogg is set to give a concert tonight in Edmonton, forcing the Oilers to practice somewhere else as the ice is being changed into a stage:

According to multiple reports, the Oilers should send the same players on the ice that we saw earlier this week in Florida for game five. This would mean that Evander Kane wouldn't be ready to return yet, according to Jason Gregor:

"Watching entire practice it does not look like Kane will play. Skated on 5th line and never rotated in on 4th line.

Expect same lineup for Oilers in Game 6."

Oilers fanssurely hope that players won't go at the Snoop Dogg's concert tonight so they can oerform at 100% tomorrow, when they face elimination for the third straight game.
