About the Edmonton Oilers

The Edmonton Oilers are many things at once: a storied NHL franchise, a symbol of Alberta’s bold spirit, and today, a team built around speed, skill and relentless ambition. From deep playoff runs to bold contract moves, they’re chasing more than wins—they’re chasing legacy. A current highlight: Oilers captain Connor McDavid recently signed a two‑year extension worth $25 million, reaffirming his commitment to bring the Stanley Cup back to Edmonton. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
