Bob StaufferHOST
You said something there about coaching and, um, and the two Stanley Cup finals against the Florida Panthers.
Bob StaufferHOST
And I, uh, some might say Chris Prust, Glenn Gulutzan, and Paul Coffey were a significant reason why the Oilers got to the finals in back to back years.
Bob StaufferHOST
You think the Oilers got outcoached.
Bob StaufferHOST
There was some of the game...
Bob StaufferHOST
But McDavid had nothing to do with that decision.
Bob StaufferHOST
I bet you, given the amount of respect that they had for Glenn Gulutzan, that if they were gonna replace Jay, the Oilers top players probably would have thought Gully, with the experience that he had, might have been, and the relationship b- by, 'cause by that year, we're talking f- he'd been here five years, through Todd McLellan, Ken Hitchcock, Dave Tippett, Jay Woodcroft.
Bob StaufferHOST
They probably would have said, "Give Gully the job," right? So in this situation, they did have input, and they picked Babs.
Bob StaufferHOST
And d- Babs brought in DJ Smith and brings in, you know, a- another coach that's been received quite well, frankly-
Bobby GermanyGUEST
All those guys missed a lot of time last year.
Bobby GermanyGUEST
Uh, his first year under a new head coach in Glen Gulutzan.
Ryan PinderHOST
Yeah.
Bobby GermanyGUEST
So now you got a s- a second year under him in that system, and it was a bit of a down year from Jake Oettinger, too, and they still [chuckles] finished with 112 points.
Bobby GermanyGUEST
All those guys missed a lot of time last year.
Bobby GermanyGUEST
Uh, his first year under a new head coach in Glen Gulutzan-
Ryan PinderHOST
Yeah
Bobby GermanyGUEST
...
Bob StaufferHOST
Well, they're not the only team with a new coach.
Bob StaufferHOST
Uh, and you were always a big believer in Glen Gulutzan.
Bob StaufferHOST
And I think we saw last year, I think Chris Knoblauch, who d- did a solid job in Edmonton, it needs to be stated, did a solid job.
Bob StaufferHOST
The, the staff had a, you know, a challenging time, uh, last year and there's been changes made.
Aidan GanimHOST
Yeah, that was a big question mark last year with the Oilers and, you know, Kris Knoblauch kinda taking the reins on his own, so to say.
Aidan GanimHOST
You know, he had Glenn Gulutzan before and Paul Coffey-
Dave CampbellGUEST
Yeah
Aidan GanimHOST
... was around, and there wasn't much, you know, NHL experience, like, you know, to be right in his ear, guys who have coached in the league before.
EricHOST
That's a good, uh, that's a good text.
TrevPANELIST
I saw, uh, Glenn Gulutzan the other week at a bar, which is weird.
TrevPANELIST
Just-
Dave JamiesonHOST
Having a juice
Joey EricksonHOST
Stars fans, what do you think will happen if the Dallas Stars fall short once again? Failure to reach their ultimate goal, a Stanley Cup.
Joey EricksonHOST
Does it depend on how far they go in the postseason, or maybe even the unthinkable right now? What if they don't even make the Stanley Cup playoffs? Will Glen Gulutzan still be around? Jim Nill, his contract was extended last spring.
Joey EricksonHOST
Does he stay in town for the remainder of his contract? What do the Stars do with the roster? Is there going to be huge changes, big roster turnover? What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.
Joey EricksonHOST
I'll share some of my thoughts on today's show.
Joey EricksonHOST
I think this will be the, the final contract for Jim Nill i, i- in Dallas.
Joey EricksonHOST
He's been the general manager since 2013.
Joey EricksonHOST
He has been able to usher them through a really difficult time when Glen Gulutzan was the head coach for the first year, or not the first year, but following his first year, he ended up firing him and then bringing him back.
Joey EricksonHOST
Has made them a perennial contender, let's be fair.
WesHOST
Yep.
MarkHOST
Does he take a full year to, uh, kinda work his way through Glen Gulutzan's defensive system, and does that unleash his offense again? Um, you know, obviously there's the Seguin question.
MarkHOST
Do people like Ritzkovian, uh, continue to grow? Uh, does Matt Duchene, uh, continue to shine, or does he start hitting a regression curve? Um, even-
WesHOST
Ooh, wait.
Tom GazzolaHOST
They've gotten to the big dance during the bubble.
Tom GazzolaHOST
Uh, they lost to Tampa, and they had a strong year last year with Glen Gulutzan at the helm.
Tom GazzolaHOST
And, uh, Owen, first of all, welcome you into the show.
Tom GazzolaHOST
Thank you for hopping on today, taking some time to talk to us.
