On today’s podcast, I discussed the Oilers' coaching debacle, Vegas' gamesmanship, pressure on the management group, and more. Needless to say, it's been a busy week around here.</p><p><br></p><p>I kicked off this week's episode with a quick recap of the Oilers' coaching drama that kicked off after <a href=\"https://publish.oilersnation.com/2026/05/12/edmonton-oilers-bruce-cassidy-vegas-golden-knights-coaching-search/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Frank Seravalli broke the story</a> that Edmonton reached out to Vegas for <a href=\"https://publish.oilersnation.com/2026/05/12/edmonton-oilers-kris-knoblauch-bruce-cassidy-coaching-search-scandal/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">an interview with Bruce Cassidy</a>. While it absolutely makes sense that the Oilers would do their due diligence before making a change behind the bench, the fact that the news broke before they gassed Kris Knoblauch certainly didn't look good. Either way, the Oilers' most important summer in ages started off a little rocky, and it's going to be fascinating to see how and if they can pull themselves out of this tailspin.</p><p><br></p><p>Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a guest Righteous Sack Beating, then closed out the podcast with another round of voicemails. The voicemail was alive again this week, and, as always, I had a wonderful time with everyone's takes on whatever you wanted to talk about. The voicemail is the best way to wrap up the show and give everyone a chance to share their thoughts. Another hearty thank you to everyone who contributed to this week's episode. Having all of you in the mix makes the show so much better. <a href=\"https://www.speakpipe.com/SpilledMilk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Want to leave a voicemail for next week’s show?
