Canada’s Hayley Wickenheiser honoured as giant of women’s hockey retires

Hayley Wickenheiser, who led Canada to four Winter Olympic gold medals and a silver during her distinguished career, was honoured during a special pre-game ceremony prior to puck drop between the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers at Roger Place on Saturday. The 38-year-old from Shaunavon, Sask., who announced her retirement from hockey on Friday, has lived in Calgary since she was 12 but has been a life-long Oilers fan, making the game between the two Alberta-based rivals the ideal place for a tribute in her eyes.

Oilers rally for OT win

Leon Draisaitl scored 1:50 into overtime as the Edmonton Oilers rallied for a 3-2 win over the New Jersey Devils. The Oilers struggled at times throughout the evening and had to come from behind for the victory.
