Tom Renney has been coaching hockey for 15 years, and this is his second stint as an NHL head coach. He has never coached a team as young as the Edmonton Oilers."We had some young players in New York," the first-year Oilers coach told FanHouse Friday. "Mark Staal, Henrik Lundqvist, Ryan Callahan, though not all at the same time.
"We're talking about exemplary first round players. People who watch our team recognize we're kinda pinning our long term hopes on them."
Renney's referring to the fact that three recent first-round picks -- Taylor Hall (2010), Magnus Paajarvi (2009), and Jordan Eberle (2008) -- have all started their NHL careers at the same time in the Edmonton lineup.
