Oilers legends Paul Coffey and Wayne Gretzky shared many great memories together and battled during the playoffs in the 1980s with Coffey helping the Oilers organization win three Stanley cups. The two old teammates reunited on TNT and during an interview with Coffey, Gretzky gets razzed by him while trying to settle an argument on live television.
Gretzky's reaction to Coffey's answer that he blocked more shots than Gretzky because The Great One gave the puck away too much was priceless. It certainly shows that both players still hold great respect for one another and friendship while still sparring a few jokes after all these years.
Coffey, is currently working on another chance of winning a Stanley Cup but this time as an assistant coach with the Oilers. Since his hiring with rookie head coach Kris Knoblauch, the team completely turned around for the better after one of their worst starts in the McDavid era in early November.
Coffey has taken his defencemen under his wing and continues to give them sound advice which they have bought into which has helped their turn around.
After their 6-1 win against the LA kings in game 3, the Oilers are looking to take a stranglehold on the series has gained 4 will be held tonight April 28th at 10:30 PM eastern.
