What makes you so sure of that? As much as I'd like to have Quenneville here i do think working for this management and ownership group would be unattractive to anybody who wanted to run their own show.

The other possible challenge for anyone considering taking a role as Oilers coach would be the possibility that Chia's a lame duck GM. He's not good, and there's a cabal of former Oilers nearby who may decide to make a change. Your boss today may not be there tomorrow, and the next GM may not share a philosophy with you and may want to "put his stamp" on the team by adding his own coach. That's always the old-school NHL way (although whether it's the right way or not is somewhat doubtful unless the coach has some significant red flags too...replacing the GM shouldn't always mean the coach needs to go too).
There are more doubts about whether Chia should be here than even McLellan, so if you're Quenneville and Chia offers you a job, you have to wonder what his shelf life is - or if he's likely to make another foolish trade in order to try and save his job, possibly hamstringing you on the roster more.
Of course, maybe that's a positive feature too. No Chia means you won't see him trade a top NHL talent for pennies on the dollar or sign more grinders to long term deals with no move clauses...
