EDMONTON, AB - Formerly labelled with having a menacing reputation around the League, Zack Kassian no longer wonders how he is received in Alberta's capital city.
The beloved Oilers forward heard his name reverberate through Rogers Place in the post-season last year and became one of Oil Country's treasured players.
Locked into a three-year contract extension he inked in the off-season, Kassian's reception from the Oilers faithful still hasn't sunk in and he likes to think the love is spread throughout the dressing room.
