I would think every coach that's looking for a job, you know, if it became available, nobody knows and nobody said that.
I like Chris Knobloch.
I think he's an excellent coach.
But if I were working for the club, I would for sure do the same thing.
I don't know how shocked people really should be.
It's just part of your duty, particularly in Stan's case as the GM.
In my opinion, he's made the right call.
It doesn't mean he's going to make a change, but it does mean that it's not going to be a cursory.
We had a self-review, and this just happened with a club, and we've determined that we're in good shape.
That's a joke.
That did happen for a team recently here.
They did their own audit.
If you ask me, this is more, you know, real world due diligence.
How are we going to get better?
Every day when you come to the office, you start with that question.
And that's the mode that the Oilers are in now, and it's exactly what they should be doing.
It's not that often I show up on your show and you don't know about it till the last minute.
I think as far as the general public goes, they're not aware how many times these things happen.
what's uncomfortable about it is when people find out it's not great optics but it does happen um from you know from stan bowman's perspective you got to find out you got to figure out what's out there you know not everybody has a coach in their back pocket
You know, sometimes when you're managing, and Gord knows this, you have people that you know would work well in your organization, but they may not be available.
