Episode Details

Edmonton Oilers coach drama continues as they cant even chat with Bruce Cassidy, fired by Vegas Golden Knights, due to permission issues. The team has a history of chasing talent and hitting roadblocks, like when they hired Todd McLellan from San Jose Sharks and Peter Chiarelli from Boston Bruins, both resulting in costly trades and failed stints. The leagues coach compensation rule, implemented in 2016, forced the Oilers to surrender draft picks, but its unclear if this rule would apply to Cassidy. The Oilers coach hunt has led to bad fits and lost assets, making it uncertain if pursuing Cassidy would yield better results.
