The Edmonton Oilers joined the NHL in 1979 after starting life in the World Hockey Association. Under Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, Jari Kurri, Paul Coffey and Grant Fuhr, the club won five Stanley Cups between 1984 and 1990, cementing itself as one of hockey’s great dynasties. Edmonton fans are famously loud and loyal, packing the ICE District hours before puck drop and turning Ford Hall into an outdoor rally on game nights. The Oilers have called Rogers Place home since 2016 after decades at the Edmonton Coliseum (Rexall Place). The Battle of Alberta against the Calgary Flames is one of the NHL’s most intense rivalries, with meetings against Vancouver and Winnipeg also drawing sellout crowds. The copper-and-blue, Oil Country chants, and the dynasty banners hanging from the rafters give every home game a distinctly Edmonton identity.
The cheapest Oilers tickets typically appear on weeknight non-rivalry games — Mondays and Tuesdays against non-conference opponents move at the steepest discount. Upper-bowl and end-zone seats are 40-70% cheaper than centerline lower-bowl, with comparable views of the action. Check the AllSports listing close to game day too — prices can drop in the final 48 hours when more seats release.
Avoid the markup trap: compare AllSports listings by section, opponent, and game date before you buy. Mid-bowl 200-level seats are the sweet spot for budget-conscious fans — strong sightlines, half the price of premium club seats.
The NHL regular season runs October through April, with playoffs through June. Each NHL club plays 82 regular-season games, split between home dates at Rogers Place and road dates across the league. The Edmonton Oilers schedule typically releases in July, with onsales rolling out city-by-city in the weeks that follow. Playoff and postseason dates are added round-by-round as the bracket clarifies — check this page first when those dates drop, listings refresh every six hours.
The hottest Oilers dates on the NHL calendar are divisional grudge matches and Original Six visitors. Rivalry-game inventory at Rogers Place routinely clears 60-90 days before the first whistle, with the steepest price jumps on the lower bowl. If a rivalry date is on your wishlist, lock in tickets as soon as the schedule is released — waiting until game week often costs 2-3x the early-onsale price.
