The Copper & Blue, an Edmonton Oilers community

On this day 32 years ago the Oilers and Jets played the last game in WHA history. Today in Edmonton the WHA has been all but forgotten. There are seven years of Oilers history tied to the WHA and with 32 NHL now under our belts I see no better time than now to start recognizing and celebrating the OIlers WHA history as the team enters their 40th anniversary season.

The Oilers are bad, very bad, on special teams. Where do they rank?

Once, a generation ago, the Edmonton Oilers picked first overall in the World Hockey Association. This is that story.

It used to be a much bigger deal when the Oilers cisited Toronto. The most famous game between the two mostly non-rivals was played 30 years ago this month.
