Fantasy Impact: The Edmonton Oilers have fired their head coach, Dallas Eakins. Craig MacTavish will take over as coach for now.

 

The Oilers get: another coaching search underway. Eakins had his team cut down on shots against this season and they seemed to play with a little more responsibility versus last year. But that’s not exactly hard to do, given how horrible they were last year. But the two goaltenders Eakins was given have been unable to stop even 90% of the shots they faced. That part of the blame cannot be laid completely on Eakins shoulders. After all – he had the team cutting down on shots faced. The goalies need to take it from there.
