Many believe that the meeting took a curse for Skinner, which has led him to play the playoffs before.
The Swift-Skinner’s “Curse” has long been a joke among NHL fans. This is not the first time the pop star has allegedly influenced the success of the hockey teams.
The singer was the object of the hatred of La Kings fans, when in 2015, a banner was installed in their arena, which honored his record number of sold -out concerts.
The team had won the Stanley Cup in 2012 and 2014 and advanced to the Conference Finals in 2013, but after setting up the banner, the team did not win any playoffs to six years 2015-2020.
The banner was removed in 2020 after repeated fans complaints.
Skinner was selected in the first round of the 2010 NHL booking event. He spent the first eight years of his career in Carolina Hurricanes before spending the next six years in Buffalo Sabers.
