How to stream tonight's Oilers game at the Young Stars Classic
The NHL season isn’t set to begin just yet, but Edmonton Oilers fans can still check out some exciting hockey action this weekend.
The Young Stars Classic, featuring the four Western Canadian teams in the Oilers, Calgary Flames, Vancouver Canucks, and the Winnipeg Jets got underway last night, and will continue on through Monday.
The event is taking place at the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton, BC, but isn’t televised. That said, the Oilers are making sure their fans have a way to tune into the action.

The Oilers have 25 prospects playing in the tournament. Several are camp invites to help fill out roster spots, but there are a number of players that Oilers fans will want to tune in to watch, such as Xavier Bourgault, Matvei Petrov, Carter Savoie, Tyler Tullio, Beau Akey, and Maximus Wanner.
Bourgault is the most exciting of the bunch, as the Oilers have had high hopes for him ever since they selected him with the 22nd pick in the 2021 Draft. The 20-year-old had an up-and-down rookie season with the Bakersfield Condors in 2022-23, registering 13 goals and 34 points in 62 outings. Despite the so-so season, he remains one of the organization’s top prospects.
All four teams in the Young Prospects Classic play a total of three games. The Oilers were able to win their first last night by a final of 3-1 over the Winnipeg Jets. Their second outing will take place tonight against the Flames at 8 pm MT, while their third and final contest will get underway tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 pm MT versus the Canucks.
