Derek Laxdal Interview

This is an interview we were able to do with Derek Laxdal the coach of the Edmonton Oil Kings of the WHL. The Oil Kings were the 2013-2014 WHL Champions as well as the winners of the 2014 Memorial Cup.

We talk all about this past seasons accomplishments as well as what might lay ahead for the Oil Kings.

Since this interview took place, Laxdal was named the Head Coach of the Canada’s National Men’s Summer Under-18 Team for the 2014 U18 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup tournament.

We also talk about his decision to leave the Idaho Steelheads 4 years ago and what job he passed over to go into the ranks of the WHL. It runs about a half hour.

Enjoy. We will be back with a regular weekly show next week.
