Some folks say that the Babcock to Edmonton is at best clickbait and at worst ragebait.
I get it. I would agree except the most connected Oilers insider, Stauffer, has brought it up and defended it.
Small chance it happens, yes. But I will suggest there is a real chance.

'He'd be perfect': Mike Babcock-to-coach-Edmonton-Oilers rumour refuses to die quietly I suspect if I did a poll, Edmonton fans would not agree. But plenty of redemption stories in the NHL, with Oilers in the middle of a few. edmontonjournal.com/sports/hockey/… via @edmontonjournal

@SuperNovs1 Bahahahshaha.. why would they want, take, or would he wave to go there
English

@Patty8764 @Oil_Drop Um yes he did.. he was fantastic.. what I’m saying is.. he’s still young and there could still be growing pains.. BUT adding Samanski AND Howard .. is a lot of hope they will be good and what we need.. throw in a round Dach

@OilersNation @zjlaing @ryderfm @TheLisaEvans @SIASport In what world.. is a Nurse for Reilly a good idea? It’s a shame they let some people talk.. we all hate the nurse term.. but he’s playable … he wears an A, he’s buddies with 97& 29. I’m all for exploring making us better.. Reilly is NOT it🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Today, @zjlaing joined the Sauce with @ryderfm & @TheLisaEvans and proposed the idea of a Darnell Nurse for Morgan Rielly swap this off-season.
Presented by @SIASport

@OilersNation Just so I understand..your brilliant idea is to have Savoie, Howard, Samanski. And Hutson all in the lineup?? Impossible to be serious!!

How the Oilers can fix their depth by defining forward roles for 2026-27 oilersnation.com/news/edmonton-…

@yoke_and_puck None.. he just started playing more this year.. he wasn’t even in the league the last 2 yrs prior..
English

@thewiz0915 Worst case.. we put in the minors and pay him.. owner has enough money.. let him rot and get better LEGIT goaltenders..
English

@rhpiano Jarry is untradeable and you can't buy him out. He has 4 months to at least get his fat ass into shape and try to resurrect his career. Fans better get used to him being here next year.
English

@OilersRus Come up with legit options..Ekholm ain’t going anywhere.. nurse has control. Who is taking 7 yrs of Frederic? And how do you think a legit #1 is attainable? Why would a team do this?? Bottom 6 is fine with a tweek. Don’t resign Roslovic.. Dach is a must
English

My Oilers summer wishlist:
Gone:
Knoblauch and staff
Nurse
Jarry
Henrique
Frederic
Roslovic
Pickard
Ekholm
Ingram - or keep as a backup ONLY
Need:
REST
Legit #1 goalie
Top4 D-man
Top6 winger
Better bottom 6 forwards
Better / experienced coaching
Will any of it happen? 😬

@thewiz0915 2yrs of finals , 1 - 4 nations final, an Olympic final.. if 97 and 29 are done.. this team can’t compete
English

@thewiz0915 It was a year of full injuries.. coach and gm should have a full offseason and see what next year brings
English

At no point this year did we play like a contending team for any stretch of time. Fully expected and well deserved. Knob will get canned, maybe Bowman as well and we start again next October with a full tank of gas. Exeunt....

@rhpiano @EdmontonOilers Something has been off with this team since game 5 finals last year. Both stars called out coaching this year. Coffey had to come back to salvage season. Sorry I don't believe in coincidence. Knoblauch is a problem.
English

@Feast15 @EdmontonOilers Meh.. it seems like coaches are always the easy way out.. not saying he’s a top coach.. but ruff also went from terrible to smart and first place with the same team
English

@Feast15 @EdmontonOilers I agree.. but it’s the same issue .. no cold goalies
BUT.. only 1 has gone to cup finals
English

@rhpiano @EdmontonOilers Oilers effect. Same reason Tippett never got a sniff after too. We will see if Kris gets one next year.
