The Edmonton Oilers kick off their second-round playoff series against the Vegas Golden Knights tonight at T-Mobile Arena, with puck drop set for 7:30 PM MT. After dispatching the Los Angeles Kings in six games, the Oilers are looking to carry their momentum into a high-stakes showdown with the defending Stanley Cup champions.
Back home, Oil Country is ready. Rogers Place will host a Road Game Watch Party for Game 1, with tickets available at EdmontonOilers.com/RogersWatchParty. For fans wanting the outdoor playoff vibe, the Ford Tailgate Party in ICE District Plaza and the Play Alberta Fan Park—complete with the massive Molson Hockey House tent—will open at 6:30 PM. Entry is free, but fans will need a LOILTY Rewards QR code for access to the Fan Park.
Looking ahead to Game 3 in Edmonton, home game tickets are on sale now, and for fans outside the city, Oil Country Fan Bus packages are available from 10 Alberta communities, including Lloydminster, Grande Prairie, and Fort McMurray. Each package includes round-trip bus transportation and a game ticket.
As always, fans can take part in the Oilers Playoffs 50/50 draw. The “This is Oil Country” raffle is supporting the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation’s Every Kid Deserves a Shot campaign. The bonus jackpot is already over $2.2 million and rising, with tickets available to anyone in Alberta at EdmontonOilers.com/5050.
With Vegas standing between Edmonton and a conference final berth, all eyes are on tonight’s Game 1. Expect speed, grit, and plenty of Connor McDavid.
Can the Oilers set the tone early on the road? One thing’s for sure—Oil Country is fired up and ready.
