Coffey last coached Midget AAA, am I right?
Suspended three games for using a discriminatory slur.

Does Woodcroft have the best winning percentage of any coach ever fired? He must at least be near the top of the list.

You give the Oilers too much credit. They probably make her the capologist since she taught a subject with economics in the title. She'd be better than what they currently have though.

They didn't hire Mark Spector? Or is he next for Holland's job?

The Oilers organization have always used their wacky ways to consider themselves pioneers.
Hiring Eakins becuase he had unconventional methods with the Marlies and other teams really wanted him, so fire your old coach via Skype.
Hiring Pat Quinn and Renny as a two headed coach monster.
Offering less to Comrie in his second contract because he should be thankful for being overpaid in his first.
Etc etc.
For McDavid, it gives him the chance to get some pals some cash and opportunity they would've get anywhere else, but really it won't keep him there. Katz agreeing to this really doesn't lock down McDavid as being any more loyal. These pals of his will take a couple $M from the Oilers and when McDavid signs with the Kings, Rangers, of Blackhawks in a few seasons, all these guys, if still employed by Oilers, will disappear from Edmonton too.

That'll teach him for winning when the draft lottery is looking so good

The fact they're pinning everything first on the goaltending (sending Campbell down) and then the coach, instead of literally the roster and the guy who built the roster and gave Campbell 5x5 in the first place... plus Nurse 8x9, Kane 4x5, etc etc
Hilarity at its finest.

Kris Knoblauch's parents missed a golden opportunity to name their son Robert so he could go by Bob Knoblauch.

They gave Glen a medal for the PP he's not getting fired.
He's been passed over three times now when McDavid fired the coach.
So happy to see a smug sack of trash like Woodchip fired. Hope we never see him again.

Always joke about mcdavid wasting away in Edmonton but Nuge has been there 13 years? Poor guy. He must have no fight left. He needs to be re-homed immediately. At this point he’s basically a prisoner who forgot the outside world exists.

That's next. The Edmonton media can only carry so much water at once for the organization and blaming the goalie and the coach in one week is pretty extreme for even the Oilers run media.
One only hopes that Lowe comes out of retirement to lead the Oilers again. That or one other connection from McDavid's past.

Is this more about McDavid's next contract than winning, I wonder.
And is Paul Coffey the answer to getting them to play better D? LOL.
