MEET THE SPEAKERS

PGA of Alberta Insight Kevin Lowe will be hosting a Q&A session alongside Garry McKenzie. The format of this session will begin with a guided Q&A discussion moderated by Matt Johnson, Head Professional at Royal Mayfair GC and Co-Chair of the Education Committee. The second portion of this session will be opened up to the attendees for any questions they may have and to spark interactive conversations. Kevin will be bringing valuable business experience from running an NHL franchise as well as insight into the life of a professional athlete.

KEVIN LOWE, Vice Chairman – Oilers Entertainment Group

Kevin Lowe is entering his second season as Vice Chair and Alternate Governor of Oilers Entertainment Group (OEG). Previously, Lowe served as the Oilers President of Hockey Operations for seven seasons and prior to that spent eight seasons as the Oilers General Manager. Lowe was the Oilers' first-ever draft pick when he was selected 21st overall in the 1979 NHL Amateur Draft. He scored the first goal in team history as he beat Tony Esposito at 9:49 of the first period in Edmonton's first NHL game in October of 1979. The goal launched a career that saw him play for 19 seasons without spending a day in the minors. Lowe has been instrumental in the renewed success of the Edmonton Oilers, both on and off the ice and will continue to work towards and promote the growth and development of OEG in its many new business initiatives.

Lowe played 13 full seasons with the Oilers where he won 5 of his 6 Stanley Cup rings before being traded to the New York Rangers where he won his 6th and final Stanley Cup Championship. He later found himself re-joining the Oilers in 1997/98 where he retired after two seasons. After returning to his original organization, he was given the opportunity to join the front office staff as an Assistant Coach. He was able to quickly work his way up the corporate ladder by becoming the Head Coach of the Oilers for a single season in 1999 before being promoted to the General Manager position in 2000. His outstanding knowledge of the game and business led to yet another promotion in 2008/09 where he became the Presidentof Hockey Operations.

On top of his extensive resume with the Edmonton Oilers he has also helped the Canadian National Hockey teams as a member of the management team for the 2002 Winter Olympics where team Canada won the gold medal.
