Kasper played the first two games with bums on his wings and he still generated a ton of scoring chances. Then I’m the 3rd game he finally got to play with decent wingers and not surprisingly he had two points. I’m not worried about his offense at all.

Step back from the ledge fellas. It’s a prospect tournament. Let’s maybe see how he looks after a year in the AHL. He is, after all, 20 years old.

I learned to how s*** post from my dad. Bowman seems like an even bigger turd burger than Babs. He wouldve been fired and publicly ridiculed in todays league for the behavior you posted. Which begs the question... does Bowman win so many cups without his toxic abuse powers?

Yeah, clearly I had Scotty pegged wrong. Thank god this is changing. Imagine if you were allowed to just harass and belittle the janitor in your office building, or the HR lady in the front office? It's insane that coaches get a pass on stuff like this at the professional level.

I'd imagine the OVERWHELMING majority of people, no matter what job they have, would not feel comfortable giving their boss unfettered access to scroll through their phones' pictures, texts, etc. Just like nobody would let their boss look through their wallet or purse. And it's not like Babs doesn't know that this would make people uncomfortable, he's not a stupid person. THE POINT was to make subordinates feel intimidated and vulnerable.

He showed players pics of his family and described them. Then he said "I read that you had a family. How are they?" Doesnt seem too strange on the surface at first. But consideeing the entire WORLD knows that Mike Babcock is the most calculating, maniacal ******* on the planet that will gather any knowledge he can to use as leverage to do something despicable, that entire line of conversation just cannot happen. That's a conversation you have with a nice person you meet on an airplane. You dont share your most personal family information with your employer. I was inclined to brush off Commodore, Modano, and Franzen before, as it all seemed a bit of sour grapes from the players. But this incident is telling. Babcock IS the jerkoff that people say he is. He's a total dbag.

So Sebastian Cossa listening to Ozzy tell stories, and thus endearing himself to Ozzy, directly prompted his drafting by Yzerman? Here's what I think happened: Yzerman saw a HUGE, handsome North American goalie with a lot of swagger and decided to draft him and develop him into Ben Bishop part 2. Yzerman saw a good, calm Swedish goalie, but knows that a Swedish goalie has never won, so he said nej to the goofy looking rslurred lad.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it Osgood whom gave the thumbs up on Cossa instead of Wallstedt after interviews prior to the draft? The 1 thing that stuck with me was the opinion of a scout who more or less said be wary of the impressive numbers he's putting up as a netminder on a WHL/OHL/QMJHL team with loaded talent in front of him when compared to another player in a men's league overseas...

Toxic Actions of Toxic Coach of Toxic Sport in Toxic League exposed by Toxic Host of Toxic Podcast on Toxic Website Thank the heavenly father he's banished. The man had become too powerful for a mortal coach. Not only did he molest the players phones, but he molested his boss's too. Good GAWD.

But do you feel better now?

I was getting worried about you being worried. I feel better now.

thanks. i knew i could count on you.

With this latest Babcock news, and all of the other news about him being a dick to players, I am reminded of the 2008 TDL when we almost re-acquired Sergei Fedorov. It was wildly rumored that Babcock was the one that didn't want him to come play here. I am encouraged that even though Babdick didn't want him here, Holland still tried to acquire him, but didn't want to pay the price. Filppula and a 1st, which is ironic since he was so quick to give a 1st away for KFQ without blinking an eye. This was just CBJ ask, there was no counter by Holland as far as I can remember, and Fedorov ended up going to Washington for pretty much a nobody who turned in to a bigger nobody. Flip had a nice career, after he left Detroit, but IMO, if Detroit would've re-acquired Sergei, they probably would've won back to back in 08/09. Plus if it was the 09 1st rounder, heaven forbid that we didn't trade that for a 2nd and a 3rd (Ferraro and Nestrasil) they really did so much to help this franchise! Shulda, woulda, coulda, but looking back, this is an early indication about how Babcock let personal feelings get in the way of a teams success. Fast forward to what we are all learning about him now, with multiple Red Wings and Maple Leafs stories, I really cannot stand this guy and really wish he wasn't part of this team's History. He ruined many players swan-songs, including what should've been a glorious homecoming for Mike Modano.

i don't think it was a matter of the leaders choosing coach over kids. I think it might be a case where the leaders had a different experience and didnt know the kids had a problem with it. Or that Babs possibly treated the kids differently (which he is known to do). Or maybe they just thought the kids were way overreacting (which they sometimes tend to do). I think any divide will be way easier to mend now with Babs out, which may have had more to do with it than any actual wrongdoing. what insult is 6 letters?

I think it's reasonable to be concerned. Doubt

I don't think it's worth getting bent out of shape over a couple of prospect games playing behind some of the worst defense I've ever seen. As long as he shows the same type of growth in GR that he had in Toledo last season, I'd say everything is on track with him (Cossa). He's gonna struggle from time to time. What is important is that he grows and learns from it.

I never even liked the Lions it was a joke

Yeah, I'm not not too worried. I do agree that he better have a solid year in the AHL this year though because eyes are definitely on him now.

Cossa is dead to me

You guys are so reactionary. Vile Jusso didn’t play an NHL game until he was 26 years old. Didn’t become one of the leagues 32 (maybe fewer) full time starters until he was 27. We have an example of why we shouldn’t panic on OUR team right NOW. Goalies can take time. Relax.

That’s too bad, I’m sure the team would have played their hearts out with such a worthy leader at the helm.

Babs does live rent free in people's heads.

i got bored and didnt finish it
