Icon59 Chiarelli meeting with the Oilers. UPD: press conference Friday to announce hiring?

Looks like managment is going to get cleaned out.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
Breaking from myself and @SportsnetSpec -- Peter Chiarelli in Edmonton meeting with the Oilers. More to come..


update:

Jason Gregor @JasonGregor
Sounds like #Oilers to have a press conference as early as tomorrow to announce Chiarelli. Can't confirm title at this point. #Oilers #NHL

Yep. They couldn't suck forever.

Very smart move to sign him. Combined with winning McDavid? Jeez.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
The key here is what the position would be...Is President of Hockey Ops an option. Chiarelli flew into Edmonton today

Nicholson making his moves.

I sure hope Klown and MacTipsy stay with the organization, though.

But Chiarelli isn't an ex-oiler is he?

Chiarelli gets to be the guy to potentially trade both Hall and Seguin. Nice.

Sucks that Oilers are finally starting the management clean house if true.

Well on the Brightside....Edmonton is a cap mismanagement disaster just waiting to happen, and Chiarelli has proven that he can put himself into those situations.

If Lowe and Mac-T get fired, Edmonton is a very attractive job to any GM/coach. If they stay, it's the least attractive job in the league. Nicholson sadly is no idiot. At least fire them by Skype though.

Damn... Looks like Edmonton may just be ending the old boys club finally.. Which is scary. I wonder how much getting McDavid influenced this?

Was Lowe fired and I missed it?

Shouldn't they be canning them before replacing them?

Chiarelli and Maclellan combo incoming? That would be the best move the Oilers have made almost ever.
