‘The city is great to us every time:' U.K. Oilers fans return to Edmonton for Stanley Cup Final
Oilers fans Nicola (left) and Brian (right) Shotton have visited Edmonton multiple times from Northern England to cheer on the Oilers. (Supplied) Diehard Oilers fans all the way from Northern England are gearing up to watch the team at Rogers Place in games one and two of the Stanley Cup Final against the Florida Panthers. Brian Shotton said he became a fan of the Edmonton Oilers in the late 90s when hockey was considered a minority sport in the U.K.. 'At the time, they weren't a top team, but they were real battlers on the ice,' said Shotton. 'They would fight and they were tough to play. I think I resonated with that.' Shotton's favourite Oiler is left winger Ryan Smyth. 'He typified the Oilers at that time,' said Shotton. 'Heart, soul and effort and that bit of fight and battle you need to win hockey games.' Today, Shotton and his wife's favourite players are Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid. 'But I think the whole team's chipping in together in this run and it's been a real solid team effort so far,' said Shotton. Not their first rodeo This isn't the first time the couple has crossed the pond to see the Oilers tear up the ice. Oilers fans Oilers fans Nicola (left) and Brian (right) Shotton travelled to Edmonton from England for their honeymoon in 2007. (Supplied) Being big hockey fans, the two newlyweds took their honeymoon to three major Canadian cities in 2007: Vancouver, Toronto and of course, Edmonton. They spent 10 days—the longest stretch of their trip—in the city of champions. Shotton's wife Nicola said they met at an ice rink in their hometown of Ashington. 'I was a hockey fan, but not of the Oilers. I didn't really know much about them,' said Nicola. 'We got married and the Oilers sort of came with Brian.' Because of the time difference, Nicola and Shotton will often watch Oilers games at 2 or 3 in the morning. The couple travelled to Edmonton in 2024 to watch their favourite team, but that's not the only reason they continue to come back. 'Obviously the team's really important, but the city is really important to us as well,' said Shotton, saying they've made friends here who are like family.

The couple also saw the Oilers play in Europe during a 2018 exhibition where they went up against the Cologne Sharks in Germany and the New Jersey Devils in Sweden for a regular season game. Wednesday morning the Shotton's were surprised with a visit from former Oilers head coach and general manager Kevin Lowe while they were doing interviews with media.

Despite the 24-hour travel day the couple had, Shotton said it's all worth it. 'I think the adrenaline carries you through when you know what's waiting on the other side,' said Shotton, adding it was like travelling toward the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 'That's kept us going.' Although the Shotton's have seen nearly 40 professional hockey games, Wednesday night will be their first playoff game. 'It's going to be something special and I'm sure the guys will go out there and give everything after last year,' said Shotton. 'They know what the reward is.' His Stanley Cup Final prediction?: 'Oilers in six. They're not gonna let this one slip.' With files from CTV News Edmonton's Nahreman Issa and Nicole Lampa
