There are signs that Edmonton Oilers have moved on from their head coach and goaltender
It appears that the Edmonton Oilers are at an impasse with Woodcroft's coaching regime.
As the regular season has begun, Jay Woodcroft's leash has tightened due to his abysmal 2-7-1 record.
According to NHL Insider Mark Spector, the Oilers have considered all options in regard to solutions. This includes removing incumbent coach Jay Woodcroft.
How long will the team keep Jay Woodcroft? One cannot blame Woodcroft alone for the team's goaltending woes. Although defensive structures are definitely to blame, both goalies have been poor of late.

on whether Oilers head coach Jay Woodcroft's job is in jeopardy, how Edmonton can get things on track and what's been missing from McDavid & Draisaitl:
Since Campbell has been playing so poorly lately, the team has considered moving on from him, even though he still has three years left on his contract.
Despite his talk in the off-season about working on the psychological aspects of the game, Campbell's struggles are unique. The goalie has a 1-4 record eight games into the regular season. His GAA is definitely one of the worst things about his game this season. He has a dismal 4.5 in four games played, only better than Mackenzie Blackwood, who has a 4.78.
More or less, Campbell no longer plays at an NHL level as his GAA ranks 56th.
