Your Greatest Team Encore

EDMONTON PAYS TRIBUTE TO 84-85 OILERS

As smoke filtered in from the tunnel, the 1984-85 Oilers, albeit a bit greyer than those days of their youth, filtered in as well — hoisting the Stanley Cup, passing it from teammate to teammate.

It was a blast from the past, and amidst the lights and smoke, you could say it was almost like a dream.

The 1984-85 Oilers were voted by NHL fans as the greatest team of the century. Such an honour demanded a big celebration, and Sunday evening in Edmonton provided just that.
