Confirmed with Link: Jay Woodcroft and Dave Manson fired - no more Woody during NNN - Kris Knoblauch hired, Coffey as assistant

[KCC]

Worse than the dark years is now confirmed. Nothing has changed. Nothing. Lol

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Love this hire. Will be nice having an actual X’s and O’s systems coach.

I like your optimism, I hope that you're right.

 

[LTIR]

Jesus. Why is all of a sudden Mcdavid the enemy with this fan base?

Not the enemy but he was part of the recruitment process with Hyman, Kane, Campbell and likely Brown and now Knoblauch

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

Kris who? WTF IS GOING ON? I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED SUTTER! FFS

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

wtf does Paul Coffey know about playing defense?

 

[Old Boys Club]

Jesus. Why is all of a sudden Mcdavid the enemy with this fan base?

McDavid the player is not the issue, but he is that, A PLAYER. At this rate he is the defacto GM, surely you can see how this is an issue.

 

[Mr Kot]

NNN back on?

Might as well be, nobody gonna nut anyway from all this

 

[Cloned]

Lol this team man.

Lol Coffey? So Bouchard can turn into a worse defender?

I guess those leaks were right though. Just not Coffey as GM.

 

[Rafters]

Would of preferred Huddy over Coffey

 

[Cerebral]

I don’t know enough about Kris Knoblauch to pass judgement. Is he more of an X’s and O’s guy? It doesn’t look great hiring McDavid’s old coach and an Oilers legend as the assistant (old school Oilers nepotism ftw!) but I’m glad they didn’t do something crazy like hire Sutter.

 

[LTIR]

Omg. This is nuts. This org is all in desperate to keep McDavid happy for his next contract negotiation

I don't think there would be next contract negotiations with Oilers if this new coach doesn't pan out

 

[Heavy Dee]

Knobloch will e fine. Coffey is a joke

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

They should call it No Nuts November, because these guys are soft for not firing Holland first

 

[Echodek]

McDavid the player is not the issue, but he is that, A PLAYER. At this rate he is the defacto GM, surely you can see how this is an issue.

It’s purely conjecture that he had anything to do with this hire. Christ, the conspiracy theorists run deep with this fan base.

 

[Cloned]

Love this hire. Will be nice having an actual X’s and O’s systems coach.

Knoblauch is good this way?

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Lol Coffey was an advisor for this team a little while ago. Did f*** all

A good player doesn't always make a good coach. Soon all the OBC will have been a coach.

Fuhr as goalie coach is next.

 

[LTIR]

Lol Coffey? So Bouchard can turn into a worse defender?

I guess those leaks were right though. Just not Coffey as GM.

Is the goalie coach still keeping his job?

 

[dustrock]

Heard they're changing the hot dog wieners at Rogers to Connor's preferred brand

 

[Mez]

found this, sounds like big on systems but not a hard ass. Not sure how I feel? know very little about him.

 

[Faelko]

Just trade McDavid now and rip the bandaid off.

They’re literally surrounding him with HIS people, he’s not going anywhere.

 

[Soundwave]

Is the goalie coach still keeping his job?

 

[KCC]

wake me up when Holland and shwartz are gone. guess I’ll be in a coma for a long time.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Coffey is an interesting hire and through it all Schwartz still has a job. Did he happen to walk in on someone pulling a Richard Gere Lemmiwinks trick or something to have this type of job security?

 

[Jumptheshark]

Who the f*** is Krus Knoblauch?

This is a serious question

Bit of a left field hiring unless I am missing something

 

[ArthurAnyMoreDonuts]

Dustin Schwartz survived another coach firing? This guy is eternal
