Fan Day will feature the opportunity to watch an open Oilers scrimmage beginning at 10:30 AM and concluding at 12:15 PM. Throughout the day, there will be many family-friendly activities to keep fans of all ages entertained, including testing your hockey skills in the Hockey Zone, meeting the Oilers mascot Hunter in the Kids Zone and viewing the Oilers artifacts on display. Fans will also have the opportunity to browse game-worn jerseys from various eras in Oilers history, in addition to Oilers new and game-used equipment at a Mini Locker Room Sale. The Oilers Alumni and Hall of Fame Members Grant Fuhr and Glenn Anderson will also make a special appearance to meet fans and sign autographs.
"Oilers fans are passionate and have a truly unique relationship with the franchise," said Oilers Entertainment Group CEO & Vice Chair Bob Nicholson. "The Oilers have existed for 40 years because of the fans, and this milestone is as much a celebration of them as it is of the team."
Fan Day will also be the first chance for fans to see the special Oilers retro jersey for the 2018-19 season up close. The jersey will be worn four times against former Smythe division opponents, commemorating classic franchise rivalries for the following games:
Monday, November 29 vs. Los Angeles Kings
Sunday, December 9 vs. Calgary Flames
Monday, December 31 vs. Winnipeg Jets
Thursday, March 7 vs. Vancouver Canucks
An anniversary logo celebrating the Oilers five Stanley Cup wins and six Hall of Fame players will also be featured as a patch on all jerseys throughout the season.
