Let's be honest here. Given Nicholson's new position of power if he doesn't make major changes he's simply not half as smart as we thought he was as it's pretty obvious that old boys club has been running the team into the ground.

That's how I see it too - IMO any changes the Oilers make will not be driven from Bettman/NHL/Owners - it will be driven by the McDavid camp.
It wouldn't surprise me if McDavid's agent already reached out to Katz and said "if you have the same org come draft day, you better draft someone else"
