The group, along with all their significant others came together to celebrate a true Northern Albertan Christmas.
According to Sportskeeda, Celeste Desjardins shared slides of pictures and clips from their outing on her Instagram stories. In one clip, Draisaitl was seen netting a puck during the skate.
Draisaitl wore a beige hoodie, white sweatpants, a colorful beanie and orange gloves. Celeste was dressed in a long black puffer coat and beige gloves. The last clip saw their dogs running between trees in a snow-capped forest.
Honestly, it's so wonderful to see the Oilers embracing their life in Edmonton. As many of you know, the ODR is a huge part of every community in our great city, and seeing them out there defenitetly brings a smile to the face.
A few days ago, Oilers forward Derek Ryan was also spotted at his local ODR, playing a pickup game of hockey with a few kids.
Imagine the excitement of those kids sharing the ice with an NHL veteran like Derek Ryan.
These moments create lifelong memories and inspire the next generation of hockey players, leaving an impact they'll undoubtedly cherish forever.
From us to you, Oilers Central wishes everyone a very Merry Christmas.
