The Edmonton Oilers are one of five teams in the Northwest Division of the Western Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). Based in Edmonton, the capital of the Canadian province of Alberta, the Oilers play at the Skyreach Centre and wear uniforms of blue, copper, and white. Originally the Alberta Oilers of the World Hockey Association (WHA), the team’s name was inspired by Alberta’s vast oil reserves. The club won the NHL championship, known as the Stanley Cup, five times during the 1980s.
