Todd McLellan: The view from Edmonton
Marc DesRosiers-USA TODAY Sports New Los Angeles Kings head coach Todd McLellan’s most recent stop in the NHL was with the Edmonton Oilers, where he coached for three seasons and then a bit more, before he was relieved of his duties early in the 2018-19 season. While with Edmonton, McLellan had a regular season record of 123-119-24. The Oilers made the playoffs once with McLellan at the helm, winning seven games and losing six en route to a second round loss against the Anaheim Ducks.
In order to get a little better perspective on McLellan’s time in Edmonton, I talked with Jeff Chapman, managing editor of SBNation’s Copper & Blue, about what Kings fans can expect from their new coach.
