Legend has it the Florida Panthers met Kevin Spacey on a road trip before embarking on a franchise-record, 12-game winning streak. The Panthers paid homage to Spacey’s good luck by having their best player from each win don the “Spacey in space” hoodie.
The forces realigned Saturday night, March 21, as Spacey attended the Panthers’ home game against the Detroit Red Wings, rocking the hoodie he helped inspire. (But having the Academy Award winner in the house wasn't enough for a win — the Panthers lost to Detroit, 5-3.)
Spacey is just one of many celebrities that have turned up at NHL arenas this season — here's a look at some of them.
