Yup. You want freedom post-firing, say goodbye to guaranteed contracts 😉

I have a feeling coaching contracts are about to change.

@shawnmullin Yes agreed, real consistent structure. And he’s never really had the high end game breakers in their prime like 97/29, could be a great mix.

@17Mintz I feel like he had those Islanders teams overachieving too.

If Edmonton is looking at free agent coaches with a winning history I wonder if they inquire about how retired Barry Trotz is. He did get Ovechkin his cup later in his career. Might have unique inside for Edmonton’s stars.
Also Darryl Sutter just for the twitter reactions.

Like what are the odds Rousey vs Carano is one of the worst fights of all time?

Ok people, if i don’t know you and you’re nor someone i trust or talk to a lot on here.
Not gonna tell you randoms in my DM’s info i know lol especially when some of you were on me about nurse waiving 😂

@HernanDaMan I'd say you're overlooking the fact the Oilers have also had 5 different GM's (7 if you count interim tags) since 2013, they aren't exactly holding tenure either.

A new coach, sure, why not, it’s the norm in Edmonton, same old same old!
But How the owner of the Oilers continues to have faith in Jackson/Bowman is F’in mind boggling! Oilers fans should be terrified with these two running the biggest offseason!

Back to the Osh! 🌊

@Rob_Tychkowski @Madi39 Carolina has had so much more playoff success than Edmonton int he last 5 years, great point.
English
@Madi39 Not for elite organizations:
Carolina: 8 years
Tampa: 14 years
Colorado: 10 years
Florida: 5 years
English
the average tenure league wide is 2.5 years.

Average life expectancy of an Edmonton Oilers coach since Daryl Katz bought the team in 2008 (not counting two interims) is 134 games.

@BleedOilBlue It would take a GIANT pair of nuts to entertain moving McDavid this offseason - but if they did, a 2nd overall type move and some young talent is literally exactly what the Oilers would be looking for. Not gonna happen.

Eklund go back to 😴 sleep
Eklund's NHL Trade, Free Agent Rumors@Eklund
Big Rumor on Hockeybuzz.com The first team has surfaced in the Connor McDavid trade sweepstakes — and it's the San Jose Sharks. The No. 2 pick + Askarov are reportedly just a part of the package. And yes, the Celebrini connection is very real. #NHLRumors #Sharks #Oilers #McDavid #Celebrini #NHL #TradeRumors #SanJoseSharks #EdmontonOilers #HockeyTwitter

@17Mintz 10000% times yes i would. But unfortunately my guy coots just might be a little too past it.
I’ve watched him play 90% of his career games. Flyers also have my heart. Coots is someone you want…..healthy.
I said nurse for elias lindholm made some sense

Seth jones contract was traded with ease.
PLD forced himself off two teams to a team he wanted, who then also punted him after a year were able to trade his contract.
Considering Philly and Boston checked in on nurse Last summer, when he was asked to waive….
Edmonton Oilerlytics@EdmOilerlytics
Why is everyone evaluating Nurse like he’s gunna get some positive value back? It will cost a first to shed that contract and that’s the truth.
