The Edmonton Oilers Organization Released a Surprising Statement

The rivalry between the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames, known as the Battle of Alberta, is always intense.

However, there are moments when professionalism takes precedence over competition. Recently, the Oilers released a statement regarding their rival club in Alberta, which was both respectful and admirable.


The Edmonton Oilers extended their congratulations to the Calgary Flames for securing a spot in Alberta for their own community infrastructure, including a new arena.


The CSE and the Alberta government will be funding the project, which includes improvements to public infrastructure such as transit, utilities, and other support facilities.

The Oilers used this opportunity to showcase the success of the ICE District in bringing the community together. It's admirable to see teams invest in public works projects, as it demonstrates their commitment to their fans and the community. It seems that Calgary is finally catching up to this trend.
