Are the oilers sending their actual team?

I would guess they will send some of it.

Teams have to dress at least 8 "vets".

I'm not sure if the Flames get an exception because China. If not that would certainly explain all of their PTOs.

Heard on the radio this morning that Chaisson will be the most experienced player being sent by the Oilers.

If by "real team" you mean that calamity of a roster and Connor McDavid?

The Flames did get an exception, but since they're greedy enough to force this game on us at full price, they did bring some vets in to hopefully provide a competitive team.

Aren't the Oilers in Europe for preseason as well or am I mistaken? Would they then be exempt for the rule as well then?

The Oilers are in Europe at the start of October. Unlikely they'd already be there now.

Even if you count Bouchard and Yamamoto as two of the 8, I have a hard time spotting the other 6 vets. Guessing Chaisson, Bear, Aberg, and ...

Mikko Koskinen is a goalie wearing #19? Weird.
