The price to own a piece of Oilers history has fallen by over $800K
In 1982, Pocklington was shot in the home after being held hostage by a gunman for nearly 12 hours.
This home would have so many tales to tell if its walls could talk.

Pocklington, now 81, resides in Palm Springs and sold the house to a businessman in 1991.
“Indulge your creative ideas of the essence of luxury living with this secluded, one-of-a-kind estate nestled in the prestigious Windsor Park enclave,” the home’s listing reads.
Constructed in 1940, the home is due for some upgrading but has an interesting look. Today’s open-concept layouts were clearly not in style when this home was built.
The kitchen has recently been updated, with a large window looking out to the river.

Imagine relaxing on this screened porch in the summer while overlooking the river. Pocklington probably found some peace here after that fateful night he chose to trade The Great One.

The surrounding neighbourhood also adds to the home’s hockey cachet. The new owner will practically be able to wave good morning across the river to Oilers Captain Connor McDavid and owner Daryl Katz.
