Here comes another edition of the Battle of Alberta.
According to OilersNation’s Jason Gregor, the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames will be playing an exhibition game on July 28th. It will mark the first game for both teams since the NHL went on pause in the middle of March.
The two teams last played on February 1st where the Oilers won 8-3. The two teams have had quite the season against each other with much drama sparked between Zack Kassian and Matthew Tkachuk.
NHL teams started their training camps Monday and will report to their respective hub cities on July 26th.
