Bill Guerin a GM candidate for Edmonton? Winnipeg interested in Brassard?

The Edmonton Oilers make the news a lot, usually for bad reasons. They fired GM Peter Chiarelli recently. Pierre LeBrun ($) listed the Penguins’ assistant GM Bill Guerin as a potential suggested candidate:

A former Oilers star who learned his craft in Pittsburgh as the assistant GM while winning some Stanley Cup in the process. He knows the Edmonton market and he’s a personable guy who works well with others.

To be fair, this was just LeBrun’s informal and self-desribed “list of candidates that I would look at if I were the Oilers brass” and he put Guerin as the tenth name on his list, so it’s not like there’s a very high likelihood.
