Edmoton press is calling for Tambi's head:

Jones: Time's up for Edmonton Oilers' Tambellini

Tentative Tambellini has to take the fall for the failure of the Edmonton Oilers to rise.

Steve Tambellini can’t keep firing the coach. It’s his turn to take the bullet.

Last year the Oilers were 32-40-10 for 74 points after the full 82-game schedule. That’s .451. This year they’re 16-18-7 for 39 points in 41 games. That’s .476.

Last year the Oilers were 22nd at five-on-five hockey at 0.91. This year they’re 27th at 0.81.

Last year they were third on the power play at 20.6%. This year they’re fifth at 21.8%.

Last year the Oilers were 14th on penalty killing at 82.4%. This year they’re ninth at 83.8.

Last year Edmonton was 27th on face-offs at 47.7%. This year they’re 30th at 46.1.

It’s the same with almost all the stats.

No significant improvement.
