[https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/latest-news/report-oilers-linked-to-2-good-free-agents] “Some of their other assistant coaches need contracts,” Friedman reported. “Glen Gulutzan is still in the Dallas job picture. I would expect the Stars to decide this sometime early this week, if it’s Gulutzan or Neil Graham.” This has been reported on a bit already, with Stan Bowman [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/3-best-oilers-trades-by-stan-bowman] himself chiming in on the topic. But there was another detail Friedman mentioned that caught this listener’s attention. “I do think that Edmonton is considering a change at the goalie coach position.” This is a drum that some Oilers fans have been pounding at for years. The Oilers current goalie coach is Dustin Schwartz [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/players/do-the-oilers-need-a-new-goalie-coach], who joined the organization in November of 2014 [https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=29193]. He has been with the organization longer than several coaches and GMs. It’s Knoblauch’s opportunity to fill out his coaching staff. There’s a decent chance that Mark Stuart stays, while everyone else finds new opportunities elsewhere. My suspicion regarding Paul Coffey [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/latest-news/do-as-i-say-not-as-i-did-paul-coffey-reveals-his-philosophy-behind-coaching-the-edmonton-oilers-defenders] is that Knoblauch will bring him back if he wants to come back. Otherwise, a new coach there will be on the to-do list. The season of changes continues.
