Gene Principe, Tony Brar, Chelsea Bird and more!
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 responsible for bringing it, and all the analysis, to fans via TV, radio and the web.
Here’s a few of the NAIT grads from the roster responsible for the off-ice magic. Go Oilers!
