*The Oilers fired their coach yesterday. Surely that’ll solve it! [Copper & Blue]
*Because Gary Bettman refuses to admit maybe he isn’t faultless, the Arizona Coyotes will be playing in a 5,000 seat college arena for the next three years. It’s wild that people think Bettman is good at his job; imagine an NBA team doing this. Would never happen. [The Hockey News]
*Friedman’s got 32 Thoughts about this rather eventful week in hockey. [Sportsnet]
