Oilers' Options After Firing Kris Knoblauch

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee kick off by reacting to some big news out in Western Canada: the Oilers parting ways with head coach Kris Knoblauch, and the Canucks announcing the Sedin twins as co-presidents and Ryan Johnson as GM. They discuss whether the Oilers' move forces the Leafs to act faster in the head-coaching market, and they evaluate Patrick Roy, Peter Laviolette, and Manny Malhotra's potential fit behind Toronto's bench. Later, Oilers Now's Bob Stauffer (28:45) stops by to discuss what led to the Oilers' decision on Knoblauch, who — aside from Bruce Cassidy — the team is considering to be the next head coach, and the Connor McDavid aspect of the coaching change. Finally, Nick, Justin and Sam discuss the potential of a Morgan Rielly-Darnell Nurse swap.
