Of course, Connor McDavid was the first Oilers player to skate out onto the ice. He led out teammates Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Mark Letestu, Andrej Sekera, Brandon Davidson, Iiro Pakrinen and Jonas Gustavsson, as well as some local minor hockey players. A young boy named Carson skated on with McDavid.

Head Coach Todd McLellan also came to the rink, and reunited with McDavid and company as they all played together.
