Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has made a bet with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis about who will win the Stanley Cup. Smith predicted the Edmonton Oilers would beat the Florida Panthers and said he would have to send Florida rum to Alberta for it to celebrate with. “If by some miracle the Panthers win the series, then I will send some fine Alberta-made whiskey down to Florida,” tweeted Smith. “Do you agree?”.DeSantis responded by saying he was in.“If the Oilers win, then I’ve got to send Florida rum up to Alberta,” said DeSantis. “But if the Panthers win, then she’s got to send some nice Canadian whiskey down to Florida.”.Since he feels confident the Panthers will win, he said he would include some key lime pie if the Oilers win. British Columbia Premier David Eby said on June 3 he would be honouring the bet he made with Smith about the Stanley Cup Playoffs by reading out a statement written by her while wearing an Oilers jersey.READ MORE: OILERS NOTEBOOK: McDavid mobbing, Eby backs Oilers, and defund the CBC“There are few certainities in this life — Death, taxes, Alberta leading Canada in economic growth,” said Eby. “But as it pertains to our beloved national sport, we do have many certainties we can rely on.” .---------The Edmonton resident who became an internet star for showing her breasts during an Oilers game has taken down all of her social media accounts because of the attention she has received.TMZ Sports reported the Oilers breast flasher has gone into hiding after the video went viral.
