They are then published by the Official Scorer in a computer generated "Roster Report" produced using the NHL's "HTS Real Time Scoring" system. This Report is published both on-line on NHL.com and photocopies are also distributed in the pressbox prior to the start of the game. This "Roster Report" includes the names of the head coaches of both teams who created and signed the roster forms submitted to the Official Scorer.

Official Scorer within five minutes (visiting coach) after the end of the warm up, and by the home team coach shortly thereafter after he has seen the the visiting team's playing roster and starters. The lists for both teams are filled out in ink on a from supplied by the NHL and
278:, Todd Nelson is listed as "Interim Head Coach" and Craig MacTavish is listd only as GM. At the press conference announcing the discharge of Dallas Eakins, MacTavish said both he and Nelson would be on the bench together for just a few games with Nelson as "interim head coach" for the rest of the season. MacTavish said his being on the bench is just temporary and primarily for the purpose of his being able to evaluate the team close up. The team's current head coach, however, is Todd Nlson.

Honestly, it seems the Oilers themselves don't even know. Prior to the game against
Arizona, the team stated that Nelson was the coach of record, however the official scorer listed MacTavish in the game sheet. Even the Oilers twitter feed calls Nelson "head coach" but MacTavish "GM/Coach". At this

Who may have signed the lineup card for a single game, compared to the listings for Nelson and MacTavish on the Oilers' website and what MacTavish said at his presser on Monday, seems to me to mitigate in favor of the current listing as Todd Nelson alone as "Head Coach (Interim)" as that is how the

To me this indicates that the Oilers coaches page is a bit premature and shows Nelson's intended future status rather than his current status. Most importantly for now MacTavish is the head coach and any win/loss records should be credited to him rather than Nelson.

I am curious but does such a list article exist of 'all-time' coaching records? Ie a sortable list for winningest coaches in history? Just curious as its related to this, thanks

In summary, whether or not MacTavish was the head coach for one game, Nelson is now the head coach according to all official reports from both the Oilers and the NHL.

The Oilers game plan moving forward is to have MacTavish assume head coaching responsibilities temporarily before transitioning the team to Nelson on an interim basis.

The coaches are all listed as eg
