The Edmonton Oilers are set to hold an autograph session at West Edmonton Mall later this month. On October 23rd, from 6 to 8 p.m., the entire Oilers roster will be present to meet fans and sign autographs.
In previous years, fans have lined up as early as 6 a.m. to secure an autograph from their favorite player. This year, the first 300 fans at Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl’s stations will be guaranteed a signature.
“After an exciting playoff run seeing the unwavering support of fans across Oil Country, we are thrilled to once again team up with WEM to give our fans the opportunity to meet their favourite players at the Edmonton Oilers autograph session,” said Stew MacDonald, president and chief revenue officer with OEG Sports and Entertainment.
While fans can have personal items and team-issued cards autographed by most players, McDavid will only be signing custom Upper Deck cards provided at the captain’s table. Due to high demand, fans will be limited to one signature per player.
Players will be stationed at various locations throughout the mall, and a map detailing their positions will be released 24 hours before the event.
