Nov 13 2026, 9:25 pm

Bob Stauffer is looking like a man who knows he’s turning heads these days.

The Edmonton Oilers broadcaster and longtime insider shared a slow-motion video of himself walking off the team’s plane in Toronto, and it’s safe to say he wasn’t exactly trying to fly under the radar.

The video begins with an old video of Stauffer walking down the tarmac, before switching to a new clip showing his weight loss while getting off the plane with the Oilers in Toronto.

Fans quickly flooded the replies to his post on X, with plenty of people having fun with the broadcaster’s confident runway-style walk.

“Sheesh, Bob. Give the other guys a chance,” one fan joked.

“The Bobfather, ladies and gentlemen,” another wrote.

“What a specimen,” a third fan added.

Others were a little more straightforward with their praise, including one who simply wrote: “Looking good Bob!!”

It’s not hard to see why Stauffer might be feeling particularly confident these days, either.

The Oilers insider recently revealed that he’s dropped an impressive amount of weight, opening up about the transformation during an appearance on the popular Spittin’ Chiclets podcast.

Stauffer told the hosts he’s lost approximately 51 to 52 lbs, while also explaining some of the routine that’s helped him get there.

“The beauty is when you do 12,000 to 14,000 steps in the morning, you can still have a couple at night,” Stauffer said.

“I’m down about 51 to 52 pounds.”

That is a pretty significant transformation, and it sounds like Stauffer has found a routine that works for him.

The broadcaster’s appearance on Spittin’ Chiclets offered fans a little more insight into the lifestyle changes behind the weight loss, while his latest video gave everyone a chance to see him enjoying the results.

Stauffer has become one of the most recognizable voices covering the Oilers, regularly providing insight and commentary on the team through Oilers NOW and his work around the NHL.

He’s certainly no stranger to being the subject of conversation among Edmonton fans, but this time around, it wasn’t his assessment of the Oilers that had people talking.

Instead, it was one very confident walk down the tarmac.

And judging by the reaction on X, the Bobfather is getting plenty of love.
