The Oilers have not won a Stanley Cup Finals since 1990, but are back-to-back conference champions. Hubbard has been trying to get home for a game for a while, but again, there is the 4,800 round-trip to consider. Even with the short turnaround over the weekend, this was a trip worth making though.
"They've (the Oilers) have been trying to get me over there for a while and I've been making promises that I'm supposed to go over there, so it was long overdue," Hubbard laughed. "My family went with me so it was good to be back in my hometown, especially with my family."
Bleacher Report mic'd up Hubbard, who took his nephew down to the glass to experience the game up close.
