The #Oilers are clearly searching for a Knoblauch replacement. Who is a coach that has been mentioned that you don’t want behind the bench?

The #LetsGoOilers will not three-peat as Western Conference champs. And this time around it’s not goaltending, not depth, not support pieces that let them down.
Their best players had essentially 30 minutes of play over six games where they looked like their best players.

@MatthewBlittner “I went back to get my Masters degree just to fill in gaps”. What an insufferable quote

Sunny Mehta on blending analytics and the human nature of hockey:
"I'm actually glad you brought up the analytics thing. The 'A' word. So, I totally understand why I get kind of put in that analytics bucket, labeled as the analytics guy. But it's really funny. I think, if you actually look at my path, my background, even my own path to analytics, is considerably different than the typical analytics person in sports, in the sense that I never really ever set out to be in academia or be a mathematician or anything like that.
"Even though I ultimately kind of went back and got a Master's in data science, just to fill in gaps, but truly, where I learned statistics was on the job, like at the poker table, on the trading floor and in the hockey front offices. To me, the reason that I ever even cared about analytics, statistics, probability, is 'cause it helped me win.
"It helped me win in poker. It helped me win on the trading floor. And it's helped me win in hockey. So that's why I care about it. And the blending is, of course, that's important, in the same way that in poker, it's not just numbers.
"You have to have a feel for your opponent. You have to understand the subjectivity of bluffing; you have to understand the psychology. And the same thing was true in trading, right? You have to have a feel for markets.
"You have to understand how news affects things and subjectivity. Human emotion affects things. And, of course, it's the same.
"Yes, data does undoubtedly give a huge advantage in hockey, in terms of projecting future performance of players. But you have to understand all those same things: the character, the locker room, the culture, the intangibles. All that stuff matters." @NJDevils #NJDevils @sportsology

@frank_seravalli @BrienRea i’d put money on Cooper too. he’d have a shot

Incredible accomplishment for Paul Maurice to hit 2,000 games coached.
#Sabrehood Lindy Ruff next with 1,927 - and in final year of his contract. #FlyTogether Joel Quenneville behind him with 1,839 - he'd need 2+ seasons.
As @BrienRea mused... will anyone else ever get there?

@bcurlock @Woodguy55 question is…how long do these lines stay together…?
