The Edmonton Oilers have fired assistant coaches Keith Acton and Craig Ramsay.

The news comes one week after the club named former San Jose Sharks bench boss Todd McLellan as its new head coach.

Acton, 57, served two seasons as an associate coach with the Oilers. Edmonton was the fifth coaching stop for Acton, who also served as an assistant for the Columbus, Toronto, the Rangers and Philadelphia.

Ramsay, 64, spent one year behind Edmonton's bench after being hired last summer. He has worked for eight NHL clubs in head and assistant coaching capacities.
