Gutierrez 7 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 Didn't see this posted. This was from a few days ago and apparently Mike Commodore isn't Babcock's biggest fan. http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/sport...at=&sid=101 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 Some funny parts here: He admits he took a poor attitude to the minors, where he spent three or four nights a week drinking. The Ducks recalled Commodore twice, but he never played in a game. "I drank more often than I worked out, but I really deserved to be a regular player on the Ducks." Babcock traded Commodore to Calgary in a deal that brought forward Rob Niedermayer to Anaheim. The then-Mighty Ducks reached the Stanley Cup Finals that year, losing to New Jersey in seven games. The coaches trade the players now? Commodore's perceived injustice -- the kind that can be found in almost every NHL locker room -- adds intrigue to the Blue Jackets-Red Wings rivalry. Wait...what rivalry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait...what rivalry? well said, friends. the only time i liked commodore was when he was beating the oilers in the SCF. babcock wasn't GM, correct? how did he trade commodore. lastly, as you guys have mentioned he admits that his conditioning sucked and that he drank more than he worked out. and yet he's mad at babs for calling him out? what he SHOULD be saying is, "wow, i respect that babs was real enough with me to show me where i needed improvement. without that kick in the ass, i probably wouldn't be the successful player that i am today." geez... edit: spelling.

imisssergei 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 I've always liked how Commodore plays the game. So what if he has a grip with Babs. For every player who loves their coach like Kane did/does Savard, there are probably 30 who have a story similar to that of Commodore's. Big deal. Besides, Commodore has been traded a few times, that says something about a player. Sidenote......is there a pattern here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 5,153 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 ...he also has slammed Bryan Murray recently. I guess if you don't suck his d**k and tell him he is the best defensman in the league, better then that overrated Lidstrom and was the ONLY reason Carolina won the Cup that year, he calls you a bunch of names and pretty much thinks you don't know crap about hockey... ...hey Commodore, you were dead weight in Anaheim, Calgary AND Carolina, Bryan Murray didn't want you back. And my 10 year old could be the #1 defensman in Columbus so don't get too high on yourself. You couldn't be our 6th defensman in Detroit... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 Sidenote......is there a pattern here? Hmm, Babcock and Murray. Also, Scotty Bowman probably glared at him one time over dinner and said some things to the media he didn't like, and I hear Jacques Demers cut him from his peewee team and said some things to the media he didn't like.

Statts 4 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 Anyone remember the quote from a former Wing (shanny maybe) about Bowman saying something like: You hate him 364 days out of the year, and on the 365th day your lifting the cup?!?!?
