Always dangerous hiring potential HC assisting a current HC in hot water.

But do they really want a GG 5-man system in Edmonton? It might work for the bottom half of their slower Fwd roster, but it would neuter McDavid and Drai. Plus, their D are worse puck movers, I'm not sure they would handle a GG system any better than the Flames.

I think there's probably a team complexion that jives with GG's style. But the Flames weren't it, and I think the Oilers definitely aren't it.
