FGD #79: Farewell, Rexall Place

Today doesn't just mark the final Battle of Alberta of the 2015-16 season: it marks the final time the Flames and Oilers will ever play in Rexall Place.

And honestly, it comes at a really bad time. The Flames and the Oilers have a storied rivalry with one another, one that's been exceptionally pathetic for the last... eh... 10 years or so, let's say. They used to meet in the playoffs; now, they're duking it out at the bottom of the standings.

On the ice, the players are going to try to win. There's no getting around that.
