Examples of edmonton in a Sentence

1. Chris Creamer:

   You look at examples, say, between baseball and hockey. You have the New York Rangers and the Texas Rangers or the Edmonton Oilers and the Houston Oilers have existed for many years in hockey and football and it’s hard to argue that there’s going to be confusion in 2018 for these names that have existed together with no issues for 40, 50, 60 years.

2. The Oilers ':

   We knew they were going to start hard, and that’s exactly what happened, they scored a goal early in every period. We could n’t manage that the way we wanted, but we responded well and The Oilers '’s all that matters in the end Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl each scored twice for The Oilers '. Edmonton, which was playing the second of back-to-back games and for the third time in four nights, has outscored its opponents, 24-13. The Oilers ’ plus-11 goal differential is tied with Florida for best in the league.

3. Center Ryan Kesler:

   We played good enough to win, sometimes you're not going to win games. That's the way this league is. Five out of six points on the road is good, especially with the back-to-back( in Edmonton and Vancouver) here at the end and with travel and not getting in until late.

4. Sebastian Coe:

   We had a medical facility there which I don't think I've ever seen in any championship, Olympics or world championships, in Seville( 1999), we were dealing with 41 degrees of temperature. I went to Edmonton( 2001), the numbers in the stadium make this look like a first-class problem.

5. Bo Horvat:

   It is a good job at 5-on-5, but we’ve got to find a way to win those hockey games, when you do hold a team like Edmonton to two goals, you’ve got to figure out a way to score three.
