The Edmonton Oilers announced the newest member of the team on Monday. Hunter, a much, much larger-than-life Canadian lynx, is the new team mascot. #OilersMascot — @OilerRobIf nothing else, the new #Oilers mascot will remind Edmontonians to lock their doors at night. The Canadian lynx was "far and away the most popular choice," the Oilers said. Hunter is named for the original Oilers owner, "Wild" Bill Hunter, who founded the team in 1972.
