Postseason history

The Battle of Alberta refers to the rivalry between the National Hockey League's Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers. The rivalry is one of the fiercest regional rivalries in league history.[1][2] Geography plays a heavy role in the rivalry as both teams are located in opposite sides of the Canadian province of Alberta as two teams are based in the cities of Edmonton, the provincial capital, and Calgary, the province's most populous city. Both teams have met in the postseason six times and have combined for six Stanley Cup titles. The Flames lead the regular season record 130–108–18–6, while the Oilers lead the postseason matchups 23–12.[3]
