With more than thirty individual shareholders, EIGLP was the largest ownership group in the NHL. Among the four North American major sports leagues, only the Green Bay Packers have a larger ownership group. The EIG were the key players for keeping the Edmonton Oilers in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada long term by purchasing the team from then-owner Peter Pocklington for C$107 million ($166 million in 2021 Canadian dollars) and preventing the team from being moved by being purchased for US$90 million ($150 million in 2021 American dollars) or C$127 million ($197 million in 2021 Canadian dollars).
