In advance of the Battle of Alberta in the Stanley Cup playoffs, a pair of Canada’s national men’s soccer team defenders have taken time out from their World Cup preparations to make a wager on the series.
Sam Adekugbe, a Calgary kid who plays for Turkish club Hatayspor, and Alphonso Davies, an Edmonton kid who plays for Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga, have made a little wager.
If Edmonton wins, Adekugbe will donate $2,000 to the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation and take a photo in an Oilers jersey. if Calgary wins, Davies will donate $2,000 to the Flames Foundation and take a photo in a Flames jersey.
If you want to get in on the action, you can donate to the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation or the Flames Foundation at the links provided.
