The Edmonton Oilers have revealed the team’s specialty logos for this season’s Cultural Celebration Games at Rogers Place, including the upcoming Lunar New Year Game on February 13, Celebrating Black History Game on February 21 and South Asian Celebration Game on March 21.
The specialty logo honoring the Indigenous peoples of Central and Northern Alberta was featured during the Indigenous Celebration Game on November 13.
Four local designers — Pete Nguyen (Lunar New Year), AJA Louden (Celebrating Black History),Sunny Nerval (South Asian Celebration) and Lance Cardenal (Indigenous Celebration) — worked with the Oilers to create the designs.
“We were honoured to collaborate with local designers to create authentic logos that represent the rich culture, history and traditions of four communities that make up a significant part of the fabric of Oil Country,” said Stew MacDonald, president of the Oilers Entertainment Group.
Each logo will be featured on specialty Oilers jerseys and other limited-edition merchandise available for purchase at the ICE District Authentics Oilers Team Store in ICE District Plaza or online at IceDistrictAuthentics.com.
A portion of proceeds from the sale of these items will be directed to community organizations as selected by the designer of each collection.
