Yep, keep promoting people from within the system. That's been working for you so far.

@CraigJButton: Will be interesting to see if donuts will re-appear in the Oilers' press room.

Why would he go there? He's a recent Jack Adams winning coach, he'll have plenty of job offers from actual NHL teams.

He gets paid until the end of his contract whether he's working or not. Management did him a favour by letting him go right before the holidays. Now he can actually enjoy Christmas in the relief that he is no longer the coach of the Oilers.

To be fair, an endorsement from the GM when the team is struggling is often the kiss of death.
But it is hilarious that Edmonton had to lose 15 of 16 for this to happen.

That is such an Oilers thing to do. Bypass the opportunity to do a full search for a coach - including interviews with guys outside of the system - so they can replace an AHL coach that had no NHL HC experience with another AHL coach that has no NHL HC experience.
