New Home: The Edmonton Oil Kings will play their entire 12-game home schedule at the Downtown Community Arena for the 2020-2021 WHL season.

The Oil Kings are 2-2-1-0 all-time in pre-season games played at the DCA and 4-0-0-0 in the regular season.

Players of the Week: The Edmonton Oil Kings have had a pair of players win the WHL’s Journie Rewards Player of the Week Award this season. Dylan Guenther earned the honor for the first week of the season registering 4 goals and 4 assists in two games against the Lethbridge Hurricanes. Jalen Luypen would follow that up by winning the award in week two putting up two goals and an assist against the Medicine Hat Tigers.

Sebastian Cossa was named the WHL’s of the Week for the first week of the season after going 2-0-0-0 with a 1.50gaa and a .935sv% against the Lethbridge Hurricanes, it was the second time in his career he was named the WHL’s Goaltender of the Week.

A-OK: The Edmonton Oil Kings have a pair of ‘A’ rated prospects ahead of this year’s NHL Draft in forward Dylan Guenther and goaltender Sebastian Cossa. An ‘A’ rating from NHL Central Scouting indicates the player is likely to selected in the first-round.

To date, Cap has now played 272 career games, just four behind for third all-time.

Worth the Wait: Edmonton Oil Kings overage forward Kaid Oliver made his Oil Kings debut on February 26, 2021 after being acquired by the team 312 days prior in a trade with the Victoria Royals.

These ambassadors diligently promote the ongoing need for blood, stem cells, organ and tissue donations to help save lives.” Oil Kings assistant coach Luke Pierce is a Director with Hockey Gives Blood.

Gone Camping: While many young hockey players have had a hard time finding ice-time during the COVID-19 Pandemic, the same can’t be said for Edmonton Oil Kings defenceman Matthew Robertson. Starting in late November until now, the prospect has been on the ice a ton starting with ’s World Junior Selection Camp in Red Deer, followed by the New York Rangers training camp, the ’s (AHL) training camp and finally returning to Edmonton for the Oil Kings abbreviated two-week training camp.
