I'm going there...
Fire the coach.

He's Conner's boy. Not gonna happen.

This silly 18 month cycle of coaching effectiveness is probably a misread of the situation. The Oilers are good enough to win at will in the regular season when they think they need to win. Ride it out. They're not a disaster in the standings right now.

That's totally fair. Just seems like he's morphed a bit into Woody (without the job interview style answers to the press). The way he keeps panicking with the lineup. Too many players without roles other than placeholding while the core catches its breath. On Thursday McDrai played 2 minutes in a 2:45 span.. so he puts the next line out.. that line forces an icing 10 seconds into their shift.. they basically sat 10 seconds of playing time before crawling the boards again. It can't be fun for depth players or enticing for free agents when your name gets dragged through the mud while you play 6 minutes a night. Any chance you get to score, they swap you off for 97 and 29. You don't even get PK time anymore. KK was refreshing when he arrived because he seemed very entrenched in his coaching philosophy/decisions. Lately he seems like he's running out of ideas and just worries about the next goal. I feel if he keeps trending this current direction the L's will start accumulating to an unsettling number and Bowman won't have a choice.
