Tulsa Oilers
The Tulsa Oilers are an American ice hockey team from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The team plays since its inception in 1992, in the Central Hockey League.
History
The Tulsa Oilers were founded in 1992 as a franchise of the Central Hockey League, in which they were one of its six founding members. In the season 1992/93 they won the first team the Miron Cup. After they beat in the best- of-seven series in the playoff semi-finals the Dallas Freeze just 4-3 wins, they defeated the Oklahoma City Blazers 4-1 in the finals. In the 1993/94 season, the Oilers moved to a victory against last year's final opponents Oklahoma City Blazers again in the CHL finals, where they lost Wichita Thunder with a sweep. In its successful first two seasons, the Tulsa Oilers could not connect in the following period. Since the finals in 1994 they never get beyond the first playoff round, where they always missed since 2001 with the exception of the 2004/05 season the playoffs.
Before the Tulsa Oilers was founded in 1992 there were already same franchises of the American Hockey Association, United States Hockey League and the former Central Hockey League.
