Oil Derrick certified for action

 
For the past 48 hours, representatives of the Edmonton Oilers Hockey Club, Aquila Productions and Northlands, worked together to review the circumstances that lead to the situation on Monday night.  A detailed inspection of the derrick, including its cables and motors has been conducted as well as a review of its operating procedures.
 
Edmonton Oilers President Patrick LaForge says, “It has been a long few days, however we are very pleased with the process that has taken place, including the approval we received from the Occupational Health and Safety Board.  Ensuring the safety of everyone inside Rexall Place is, and always will be our main objective.”
