## Resource

Edmonton Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch was fired after three seasons, despite leading them to the Stanley Cup Final in his first two years and securing a playoff spot this season. The teams general manager, Stan Bowman, sought Bruce Cassidy, who was recently let go by the Vegas Golden Knights, but Vegas initially declined. The pressure to win the championship, along with the teams recent struggles, may have contributed to Knoblauchs dismissal. Coaching gigs in the NHL can be challenging, as seen with Cassidys previous firings. Edmonton now joins the Los Angeles Kings and Toronto Maple Leafs in their search for new head coaches.
