Sounds like many key support staff were left off because of the 2 lines of Dutton family members. Assistant GM Tyler Dellow just made the cut in the 2nd last line of staff. Thats pretty crazy. I wonder though if the ownership structure is set up in such a way that on paper all of them are owners, but he is the one that has actual power. That is the only way I think he pulls this off as I feel like the NHL scrutinizes whose name is going on pretty closely considering what has happened in the past.

Yeah, could be what he did, have all his family members listed as official owners. Pocklington's dad has zero connection on paper to the Oilers org.
