Oilers GM Stan Bowman decided a change behind the bench was necessary, and dismissed head coach Kris Knoblauch and assistant Mark Stuart; in their stead arrived Mike Babcock and D.J. Right now, it appears as though there won’t be any additional moves, according to Bowman. Right now, the Oilers have just under $5 million worth of salary cap space. The team that we have to start the season is not going to be the exact same team in the playoffs. We’re going to have some new players, whether they come through trade or free agent acquisition or like trade deadline acquisitions.
