List of Edmonton Oilers head coaches

They play in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference in the National Hockey League (NHL).

[4] Bill Hunter, who was the team's owner and general manager at the time served three terms.

[5] Glen Sather became a player-coach during the 1976–77 season, but retired as a player at the end of the year.

Sather then coached the team for two more seasons in the WHA, and maintained the position when the Oilers were admitted as an expansion franchise into the NHL.

Sather would have one more stint as head coach, relieving Ted Green after the team posted just three victories in the first 24 games of the 1993–94 season.
