Fans who will be attending the Tulsa Oilers Stanley Cup final watch parties at River Spirit Casino (81st and Riverside) now know one of the teams they will be watching.

The Chicago Blackhawks have earned their first trip to the Stanley Cup final since 1992, with a 4-2 win over the San Jose Sharks to complete a four game sweep in the Western Conference final. Chicago, which last won the Stanley Cup in 1961, will be trying to end the NHL’s longest Stanley Cup drought.

Chicago awaits the winner of the Eastern Conference final series between the Philadelphia Flyers and Montreal Canadiens. Philadelphia leads that best of seven series three games to one. The Eastern Conference final will end on Monday May 24, or Wednesday May 26 if Philadelphia wins either of those nights. If Montreal stretches the series to a seventh game, that will be played on Friday May 28.

The NHL has not yet released dates for the best of seven Stanley Cup final but the Oilers will be hosting watch parties for all games at the River Spirit Casino. This is the fifth straight year the Oilers have hosted watch parties. Fans are invited to watch the games with Oilers players, and staff members. Along with watching the Stanley Cup final, fans can win prizes from the Oilers and River Spirit.  

The Oilers had the second highest point total increase in the CHL this season under head coach Bruce Ramsay, who was in his first season with the Oilers. They will have 32 home games at the BOK Center in the 2010-11 season.

Season tickets for 2010-11 with plans for as low as $26 a month are now available by calling the Oilers office at 918-632-PUCK (7825).
