EDMONTON - Todd McLellan coached Taylor Hall and Jordan Eberle to a gold medal at the recent world hockey championship in Prague, Czech Republic.
Now he’ll be coaching them with the Edmonton Oilers.
Several sources reported Monday that McLellan, who coached the Canadian team at the world championship, will be introduced as the Edmonton Oilers’ 14th bench boss sometime this week, maybe as early as Tuesday.
“A lot of people have been speculating that and I’ve heard there’s a good chance it’s going to happen,” Hall said on Sunday. “If he’s the coach, it’s going to be a lot of fun to play with him.
