Fans are permitted to begin lining up at 6:00 AM on November 17, with the event running from 6:00 PM until 8:00 PM. They will get the opportunity to have a personal item or team-issued card autographed by a player.
"We are excited to partner with WEM once again to bring back the Oilers autograph session," said Stew MacDonald, President of OEG Sports and Entertainment. "The Oilers autograph session has deep roots with WEM dating back to the 80s, and we know how much this event means to fans across Oil Country. The players are also looking forward to this event as it's a great opportunity for them to connect directly with their fans."
"We are thrilled to once again partner with the Edmonton Oilers to host an autograph signing at WEM," said Danielle Woo, General Manager of West Edmonton Mall. "This event provides our guests with an experience like no other, getting up close and personal with all their favourite players while bringing our community together under one roof."
