Katz's Tough Call: Firing Knoblauch, Next Oilers Coach

Edmonton Oilers owner Daryl Katz, known for his demanding nature, has fired head coach Kris Knoblauch due to the teams poor season performance. Katz, who has a reputation for being one of the NHLs toughest owners, has gone through twelve coaches in seventeen years. The firing comes with a significant payout, as Knoblauch had a three-year extension worth up to ten million dollars. Katz is now searching for coach number thirteen, with the pressure to win a Cup intensified by star player Connor McDavids impending free agency.
