It has been ten years since the Edmonton Oilers were playoff bound, and the Flames appear to be playoff bound for the first time since 2015. Connor McDavid has spearheaded a resurgence of the Oilers franchise, while Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan have kept Calgary Flames fans optimistic for their own future. This would be an enjoyable series for the hockey world and bring a meaning to the Battle of Alberta that hasn’t graced the rivalry since 1991.
