Jun 7, 2024; Sunrise, Florida, USA; Edmonton Oilers general manager Ken Holland, left, and head coach Kris Knoblauch take questions during media day in advance of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final at Amerant Bank Arena. Mandatory Credit: Jim Rassol-USA TODAY Sports General manager Ken Holland has informed the Edmonton Oilers that he will not return to the organization in any capacity next season, TSN reported Thursday.
That information coincided with a CityNews Edmonton report that said the Oilers are planning to allow Holland's contract to expire on Sunday.
Holland, who was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2020, narrowly missed winning his fifth Stanley Cup on Monday in Edmonton's 2-1 loss to the Florida Panthers in Game 7.
Holland, 68, is expected to take some time before deciding on his next move, per TSN. He has been Edmonton's GM and president of hockey operations since May 2019.
He worked in the front office of the Detroit Red Wings from 1997-2019, winning Stanley Cup championships there as an assistant general manager in 1997 and as the GM in 1998, 2002 and 2008.
