This literally makes no sense, and I can't see Bowman being THIS dumb. We want a coach with a great reputation, like Cooper, Bednar or Brind'Amour... and I get that those guys aren't available presently. But BABCOCK? JFC.
If they bring him onboard, this franchise is cooked for the next 10 years. No FAs, no pipeline, stars will want out... they'll be starting from scratch. Berube would be a better fit than Babcock, if you can't get Cassidy.

I honestly think Katz is so detached from reality atleast in hockey terms. He thinks just because he thinks it's a good idea he can edict and manifest it, but the track record ain't there. There's been stretches where the hockey club seems to slowly find some cohesion, and then all the sudden we get these earthshaking decisions that send everything sideways.
Like McDavid said, two years ago was the best Oilers team we've had in generations. And out of left field the man who was slowly putting pieces in place Holland is gone, replaced by player agent (w.t.f) JJ, who then brings in hockey outcast Bowman... seriously w.t.f. And from there we've bled the good mid/low tier NHLers that helped us be good to where we are two seasons later lucky if we make the playoffs.
Just like Babcock, the hockey world was done with Bowman, but for some unexplained reason the Oilers/Katz takes a shovel to the cemetary to open that sealed grave expecting gold.
Illegitimi non carborundum.
