Everyone knows the names Connor McDavid, Leon Draisatl and Stuart Skinner. But they’re not the only ones putting on a show every time the Edmonton Oilers take to the ice. For every goal scored, every power play killed, every game won, there’s a team behind the scenes bringing you the details – on TV, radio, online and more.
Here’s a selection of NAIT grads from the roster responsible for the off-ice magic, including the likes of Gene Principe, Tony Brar and many more. Go team!
