There is one main thing that bugs me about the firing and that is why was the GM doing the interviews for the associate coach? Isn't it the head coach's job to fill out the coaching staff? If we are led to believe Krueger asked for an associate coach why was MacT so involved?

After hearing the press conference, let me rephrase my earlier post:

There is one main thing that bugs me about the firing & hiring and that is why was the GM, the assistant GM and the Prez doing the interviews for the associate coach?

Did Krueger first do a Skype or phoneinterview with Eakins and ask for permission from the braintrust only to have MacT load up the boys for a trip to Toronto to interview Eakins themselves?

With commenting on Krueger vs Eakins, I just don't understand the process of hiring an associate head coach and why the entire hockey operations group is involved.

Bad. Management. Practices.

So the NHL combine in Toronto last weekend had nothing to do with the entire Oilers management team being there? According to your interpretations, it was all just because they wanted to meddle with MacT's interview process.

It wasn't because it was convenient for them all to be around and want to meet, firsthand, a person who they'd be considering for a position with the Oilers. Because that would be too logical and totally beyond this incompetent management team's abilities to plan rationally and efficiently.

Whatever you think of Krueger, you have to admit, this looks a lot like the old story of a married guy who lines up his second wife while putting on a good show at home so his current wife doesn't even realize there's marital difficulties.

They decided to hire a head coach while telling their current head coach they were just interviewing for someone to go get him coffee. It's not a particularly honest approach.

Maybe it's the right move, but the way they've gone about it stinks.

"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
