100 Greatest NHL® Uniforms
2017-2018

Edmonton Oilers

 
 

THE STORY

The Oilers had worn blue as their primary dark uniform choice for more than 40 years; that changed heading into the 2017-2018 season. The Oilers introduced an orange home uniform based on the alternate uniform they wore during the previous two seasons; that uniform was designed after the original 1972-1974 uniforms from the Oilers’ days in the World Hockey Association. The design was the same as the home and road uniforms worn since 2011 but had the orange and blue spots flipped accordingly. Switching to orange at home wasn’t the only change that came with this set; the Oilers went from royal blue to navy blue on all of their uniforms and logos.
