## Resource

The Edmonton Oilers’ coaching search has spiraled into a full-blown circus, starting with a messy firing of Jay Woodcroft and a premature outreach to Bruce Cassidy—whose interviews were blocked by Vegas, who cited their playoff run. The Oilers then eyed Mike Babcock, despite his troubling past, including allegations of invading player privacy that led to his resignation from Columbus, with even more serious claims reportedly shared with the NHL before he left. The NHLPA is now weighing whether to investigate. With Laviolette gone to LA and the Oilers seemingly willing to overlook Babcock’s baggage, the search feels chaotic and desperate. Could they pivot to Daryl Sutter—or revisit Cassidy if Vegas clears the way? One thing’s certain: this mess needs a swift, clear resolution.
