Oilers reporter calls on the team to make a major change to their organizational coaching staff

Today on X Edmonton Oilers reporter Bruce Curlock revealed that he has had enough of the AHL affiliate of the Oilers struggling.

In a bold post, Bruce Curlock called on the Oilers affiliate the Bakersfield Condors to fire their current head coach Colin Chaulk.

The frustration and call to action comes after Coach Chaulk has shown a blatant disregard for the development of the Oilers' young talent.

Through the beginning of the AHL season Colin Chaulk has repeatedly benched young promising players in favor of AHL vets who have little chance of impacting the NHL roster.

Top prospect Matt Savoie acquired in the Ryan McLeod trade has been relegated down the lineup on many night and not given opportunities on the power play when he has earned them.

Beyond that one of the Condors' top AHL defenders last season who was progressing towards an NHL opportunity, Max Wanner has been shoved down to the third pair for the Condors.

The continued lack of development for the Oilers top stars has led in recent years to young players leaving including Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway who are now succeeding in St. Louis.

It is time for the Edmonton Oilers to take back ownership of the development of their prospects and give them the best resources possible to become NHL stars.

As the season continues this will be a story to follow along with and monitor if the Condors continue to struggle and not develop young talent properly a coaching change could be in the works.
