Historic Oilers home for sale drops by almost 1 Million in price
Former Oilers owner Peter Pocklington's old house is back on the market in Edmonton, and the price has already dropped by $800K in recent weeks.
Pocklington no longer owns the house, but the Oilers owner once's lived right in a mansion in central Edmonton on Saskatchewan Drive. The house was initially listed in 2023 for $3.2M, and the price has now dropped all the way down to $2.4M.
The Canadian entrepreneur has a somewhat infamous standing among Oilers fans. He's loved for the early success of the team and bringing Wayne Gretzky to Edmonton, but also has his critics for trading the Great One afterwards too. After selling the Oilers in 1998, Pocklington and his family left to live in Palm Springs, California.
The old ask of «if these walls could talk» certainly applies to this home in particular. These walls may have heard detailed accounts of acquiring Wayne Gretzky, trading Wayne Gretzky, and everything in between the greatest years of Oilers hockey history. If you've got a cool $2.4M laying around and are in the market, owning a piece of Oilers history would be incredibly cool.
