With the Lightning in Edmonton, coach Jon Cooper got together Thursday night with Oilers coach Todd McLellan, whom he'll share a bench with at September's World Cup of Hockey.
Cooper was selected to be on McLellan's staff for the Under-24 stars from North America, the two wanting to compare notes on players they've seen.
"He's a tremendous coach," McLellan said of Cooper. "He brings a youthful energy to the game and to the team, and we are going to be an under-24 team, so we're going to need that. So I think there's a lot of real positive attributes that he can bring to that team and to that staff.
