One of the all-time great Rock Hall moments: Dolly’s “Jolene” with Rob Halford (Judas Priest), Pat Benatar, Annie Lennox, Simon Le Bon (Duran Duran), Pink, and Sheryl Crow. Zac Brown Band held it down as the house band. Rest easy, Dolly 🤘

Unfortunately, due to the forecasted weather conditions this evening, tonight's planned flyover has been cancelled. While we're disappointed to miss this Home Opener tradition, we can't wait to welcome RNation to TD Place tonight as we kick off the 2026 season together!

Ryan Dinwiddie says RB Greg Bell is dealing with some stiffness in his neck. That’s why he’s a late scratch. Expect a 1-2 punch of Elijah Collins and Daniel Adeboboye tomorrow vs Edmonton.
