Yeah, listen, the three big ones, Cassidy, Labia, Leperuby, we've heard it all.
Those are the three right now.
I know you said it many times in the last couple weeks.
You said it when you and I were on last Thursday.
Most likely, the Oilers are looking for a veteran coach that has won before.
All three of those guys meet that criteria as far as being around for a long time and have won the Stanley Cup.
You know what?
They're all available.
So I think there's multiple teams in the running for each of those coaches.
I think there's multiple teams, if not more, and could be more at the end of this regular season or this playoff season, looking to fill a void in the coaching department.
And those three are the big three because of their history, because of what they've done.
So I understand that.
But I think it should be...
you know, a deep dive into what you're looking for, a deep dive into the personality, the system you want to bring in for this team.
It's all, all the talk has been about defense, right?
So, you know, when you look at these three coaches, Laviolette, Cassidy, and Berube, they've all done it in a defensive manner in their history of their coaching with teams that have won the Stanley Cup.
But on the flip side of that, you're dealing with a team here at Edmonton that has a
the most dynamic offensive duo in the league.
So you can build around that, but there's no question that the defensive part of the game has to be the bulk of the structure of whoever you bring in.
I look at what Conor McDavid has done in his career.
