I will be taking a client and co-worker both of whom are Oilers fans. I will cheer for the Flames either way but want to keep things professional which means no getting into fights with greasy Oiler fans.

I have been to a few Flames / Oilers games at Rexall in a Flames jersey. It is not so bad provided you're in control of your own behavior. If you go there and do not provoke anyone I'm willing to bet the worst thing that might happen is you get honked at on the street while walking towards the stadium or booed in jest as you walk by the odd person.
That all being said mixing copious alcohol consumption while in the presence of mulleted Edmontonians at an Oiler game who are spewing propaganda about RNH being the 21st Century Gretzkey might make it difficult on you to avoid saying something that could be viewed as offensive to their greasy sensibilities. That's where you might run into problems.
