Ex-Oilers coach Woodcroft to interview with Devils: report

Ex-Oilers coach Woodcroft to interview with Devils: report

Former Edmonton Oilers head coach Jay Woodcroft is looking to get back into the NHL and it looks like the New Jersey Devils might be interested. Woodcroft was fired by the Oilers in November earlier this season after a putrid 3-9-1 start that quickly saw the team fall out of playoff contention. This came after two successful tenures with Woodcroft behind the bench, including a run to the Western Conference Finals in 2022. In his place, the Oilers brought in rookie head coach Kris Knoblauch.
