Chan Takes Over Oil Kings As Hill Heads To The Oilers

The Oil Kings are handing the keys to Chan while Hill moves up to the NHL level with Edmonton, which is the kind of front-office ladder-climb junior hockey is built to produce. Moves like this usually say as much about the pipeline as they do about the people involved, because the WHL never stops feeding the next layer of the game. Edmonton gets a familiar name at the top of its organization, and the Oil Kings now have a new driver trying to keep the machine humming.
