Hockey reigns supreme in Alberta, even when "the Oil"'s not playing well (or being mismanage, depending on who you ask), the city still can't resist watching the game. The shiny new Rogers Place was opened in 2016--a marvelous facility for fans and players. As most fans will point out, the Oilers have won five Stanley Cups, with hockey legend Wayne Gretzky as the centerpiece of the team for the first four. However since the most recent title was in 1990, the faithful fans are hungry for another cup after years of suffering. Hope in the form of young superstar Connor McDavid has returned.
Chinese and Vietnamese establishments extend along 97 St NW north of 105 Ave NW. Just south of 107A Ave NW is a Chinese arch spanning 97St NW.
Attached to Rogers Place, has what you'd expect from a casino plus some good restaurants.
Having just moved to a new home in 2018, Alberta's provincial museum makes human and natural history come alive. Exhibits range from palaeontology and geology to Indigenous histories and the modern Oilers dynasty. The Bug gallery and Children's gallery are particular favourites for kids.

Housed in a bold postmodern building, the Art Gallery of Alberta explores all forms of art. Exhibitions change regularly and there is a particular emphasis on Canadian, Albertan and Indigenous artists. Though you can't touch most of the art works, there is always an exhibit room dedicated to hands-on activities, and family fun events happen regularly. Inside is a good restaurant and a quality gift shop. Free admission Th from 5PM-8PM.
