The Edmonton Oilers look to be overhauling their entire scouting contingent.
A day after the team fired their head of amateur scouting and three other scouts, the Oilers relieved pro scout Dave Semenko of his duties Monday, according to Sportsnet's Mark Spector.
The team also fired coaching adviser Billy Moores.
The moves come just four days out from the NHL Draft, where the Oilers are poised to draft the highly-touted Connor McDavid.
