Oilers Kick Off Season at Home | Edmonton Oilers News

The Edmonton Oilers kick off the 2026-27 NHL season at home against the Vancouver Canucks on September 29th — their first home opener against the division rivals since 2019. The series continues with a road game in Vancouver on October 1st, part of a new 84-game schedule with more divisional matchups. Oilers boast a strong home opener record (24-46) and a history of big wins at Rogers Place, including a memorable 2016 victory over the Flames. The full schedule drops tomorrow, though game times may still shift due to potential Daylight Saving Time changes. With expanded play ahead, this home opener sets the tone for a season full of potential. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
