Dylan Larkin

He was allegedly quite transparent in what he said to management and to the players to at least make them comfortable enough to move forward with this.

How transparent?

We may find out.

But the league wouldn't be doing this if the Oilers weren't set on hiring him.

They initiated it.

The PA said, you guys take care of this one.

You know where we stand.

Now, the PA is an interesting one because I've got to imagine that if Connor and Leon and Hyman and Nuge and those guys are comfortable with Babcock after what he told them, I don't know if you can fully step in the way of that, which is partially why I would imagine they push this over to the NHL to finalize this investigation.

Yeah, unfortunately, I don't think he'll be the only one.

But, look, again, the players, management, everybody feels like this is the best option for them right now in terms of winning.

But unless Babcock can play goal as well, they've got a lot of other things they've got to figure out there.

They're no goalie.

What are they doing with Nurse?

They want a winger to play with Connor.

They don't have a three seed.

They don't have a fourth line.

There's a lot of shit that needs to be done there in Edmonton beyond the head coaching decision.

Makes sense.

That'll be next.

It's the camera.
