About

The Edmonton Oilers are a professional ice hockey team based in Edmonton. The Oilers compete in the National Hockey League as a member of the Pacific Division in the Western Conference. They play their home games at Rogers Place, which opened in 2016. Kris Knoblauch has been the head coach of the team since November 11, 2023, and Stan Bowman has served as general manager since July 24, 2024. The Oilers are one of two NHL franchises based in Alberta, the other being the Calgary Flames. Their proximity has led to a fierce rivalry known as the "Battle of Alberta". The Oilers were founded in 1971 by W. D. "Wild Bill" Hunter and Dr. Chuck Allard and played its first season in 1972–73 as one of the 12 founding franchises of the major professional World Hockey Association. They were intended to be one of two WHA Alberta teams along with the Calgary Broncos. Read more
