NHL STATEMENT ON MIKE BABCOCK
The League has completed its review of Mike Babcock’s tenure in Columbus, and of certain alleged conduct associated therewith.
Our investigation has concluded that, even in a light least favorable to Mr. Babcock, there is no current basis to restrict his employment in the League.
Some speculation that Laine was the source of some of the big complaints that were never made public. No doubt Laine is the kind of player/personality that Babcock would rip into mercilessly.
|
If the source was Laine then I take it with a few grains of salt.. the guy is a flake.. a likable flake.. but still a flake.. that has/had talent but doesn't/can't apply it in a game anymore.. I don't even think the Fins have used him on their national team for a while..
I suspect we'll get the announcement.. then hire of an assistant .. speculation is LA's ex- (Interim) HC DJ Smith .. know nothing about him.. was Ottawa HC for 5 years. Leafs assistant coach for 4 (under Babcock before being hired as Ottawa HC) ..
Might help.. Smith's knowledge of the Pacific division and current league rosters/players should be a positive..
