EDMONTON, Alberta — The Edmonton Oilers say general manager Ken Holland will not have his contract renewed. The team announced the move Thursday and called it a mutual decision. Holland spent the past five seasons in the role and built the team that advanced to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final before losing to the Florida Panthers.
