Report: Oilers hire McLellan

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

This is kind of ancient in today's terms of social media but no threads on this ... because we are all in a frenzy about Babwatch.

Anyhow, as you all know by now, Oilers announced hiring of McLellan. Great choice, classy coach. Oilers will be a force to be wreckoned with in 2-3 years. Anyone know the dollars and terms?

P.S. Oilers didn't even request official permission to talk to Babcock.

Maybe they didn't want to spend 5 million when they could get the same thing for 2.

If Babs goes to Buffalo, it will be an ongoing story line for next few years to see which coach can bring their respective teams to respectability. As an indicator, let's say the 1st team to make it to the playoffs. I'll say McLellan.

It'll take three years for either of them to get more win in a season than Blashill. There's your respectability.

Call me crazy, but I thought our play took a noticable dive in quality when he left. I think he was (and is) a good coach. Glad he is working for real hockey fans and not a bunch of fair weather fan brogrammer tech start up geeks!
