Jones: Banner for an Oilers legend
Kevin Lowe makes the announcement about Glen Sather's banner raising on Monday (Tom Braid, Edmonton Sun).It took the combination of a couple things to make it happen, but Glen Sather will finally have his banner raised to the rafters in Rexall Place.
Two things unlocked the key to Sather’s banner box to finally allow him the chance to go up there with the rest of the Edmonton Oilers glory gang Hockey Hall of Fame members in the arena where it all happened.
Kicking himself upstairs from GM to president of the New York Rangers combined with 2015-16 being the Oiler final season in Rexall Place made it perfect.
