They must be pissed over missing out on Martin St Louis.

I'm sure McEgo and Crysaddle and Kane will take to a rookie NHL coach like champs...

Not a surprising move. Wish they had kept Tippet for a few more games though

Renney
Kruger
Eakins

Hitchcock
Tippett
Woodcroft
MacTavish only had a few games, Nelson and Hitchcock finished out seasons, but it’s true.

This will make Oilers fans happy but you can't tell me Woodcroft is a better NHL coach than Dave Tippett. Their goaltending is terrible as is their blue line and I don't know how Woodcroft will fix that.

Tippett delivered the 2nd highest pts% of all time for Oilers coaches behind only Sather.
This is hilarious.

Taking a while to get to 5000

Damn. One day sooner and they could have had St. Louis.

So the last 7 coaches in Edmonton have lasted an average of 110 games.
That is not a recipe that will ever work.

I think the workers on that team get tired of McJesus only having speed in 1 direction

Say what you want about him but Tippett is very well respected around the league. We have to be getting to the point that top coaches will simply say no to Edmonton because it becomes a blight on their resumes.

Lol, and how many coaches have they gone through now with this roster? What a dumpster fire.
Edmonton is no good.
