Edmonton is no longer feeling blue.

Not only have the Oilers clinched their first playoff berth since 2006, the franchise has decided to part ways with the blue home jersey in favor of the orange-heavy look, beginning in the playoffs and extending into next season and beyond.

"I want to touch and respect the past, but we’re in a new building. We’re in a new era. We have a new leader in Connor McDavid. We have a team that is building their identity for today,” said Oilers Entertainment Group vice-chairman Bob Nicholson, per Terry Jones of the Edmonton journal.

"It’s great to talk about playoff memories from the past and 2006 (trip to Stanley Cup Final), but this is a new era. We will go orange for the playoffs with the jerseys."

Nicholson added: "Next year, we are mandated by the NHL to go to two uniforms without a third jersey. We will have two new uniforms, one orange and one white."

The orange jerseys were brought back last season as a tribute to the old WHA club and to commemorate the closing of Rexall Place.

Now, it's become a fixed orange-ment.
