Edmonton strong 💪
The Oilers GM is a kook.
Zac hyman is the most credible source. If hyman approves of babcock , i approve.
He obviously did not do anything deemed unacceptable by the league or the NHLPA… so I cannot agree with Shauger introducing the pre-Columbus quote, as though there was no change. The Oilers need an old school, tough coach… they need to toughen up and grind!
We have a Gm nobody would touch so he hires a coach nobdy would touch. Yup Oiler Hockey😅😅
It’ll be hilarious if they win the cup next year. I just wanna see the back peddlin by the media
Katz has money. Worst thing that can happen is babcock gets fired and still gets paid
"He can take excellent rosters and win…" Edmonton doesn't have an excellent roster. Jackson and Bowman saw to that!
Everybody needs to grow up and move on get over it. The past is the past this is the NHL not kindergarten leader.
Katz, Jackson, Bowman, Coffey, and the core players who vetted Babcock are all low IQ people, period. Continuing to destroy this franchise. I am including the core players here, don't care WHO they are. The same CORE players who held for years unto Nurse, Skinner, Kane, for the sake of 'friendship' over 'winning', so they DO NOT KNOW what it takes to win.
Too many people making a big deal of this
BOWMAN IS A CLOWN!!! PEOPLE DON'T CHANGE, SORRY!!
Players never got to pick their coach before.
Leafs sign Darren Raddysh sign and trade signed 8 yr contract average $8 million per yr
Raddysh bad signinng he only had 1 good season he's going to be a one hit wonder I rather they signed Ramus Andersson instead he 30 and he has better track record.
Mike Babcock, told Stan Bowman that Mike Babcock, was Connor's handpicked option…
Rishaug is like a ref, he thinks he's more Important than the talent.
Babs is back!! Can he make it to opening night? 😅
Bad idea
Keep looking

we will all be flipping over if oilers win the cup with Babcock
LoL. NO ONE can win when coaching the Leafs.
Narcissistic personality disorder. That doesn't heal. It can be managed if the individual is highly dedicated to it. Is he? I doubt it.
I doubt he gets out of the league this time without getting punched.
Chairs being moved on the Titanic.
Babcock walking into the Oilers locker room demanding to see McDavid’s camera roll on day one is going to be a movie 😭
Mcdavid needs to waive his no move cause be traded and leave this decrepit sinking ship that is the edmonton oilers.
bowman is taking to many risks. hiring m. b., trading nurse. do we even know bouch can play this season ?
bowman gambled last season jarry, frederick… and lost.. and made the coach the scapegoat. if we do not make the playoff , pls send the whole management away.
All the reporters crapping their pants right now because they are used to nice guy Knobber.
