anthonyn66 89 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 Some wild speculation surrounding Mike Babcock's future with the Red Wings and his potential job prospects. More ahead on NHL on TSN. That's from Darren Dreger's Twitter. One of the names I always trust. Damnit I hope he isn't let go... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AusWing40 61 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 I came to post the same thing. Wonder what it could be. Maybe floating babcock is going to lace them up for the wings next year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wingsfan4795 552 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 "potential job prospects" sounds maybe like he'll be coaching Canada in the Olympics again??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilzyme 769 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 There's no way Babcock would do something insane right before the playoffs, especially given our situation. I would only hope he would announce an extension with the franchise? He's too classy to do otherwise.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nyquistfan14 489 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 "potential job prospects" sounds maybe like he'll be coaching Canada in the Olympics again??? Maybe that's it. But the way he put it, it sounded like something crazy. Which him coaching Canada is not really crazy at all. I'm scared! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AusWing40 61 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 The tweet says his future with the wings and potential job prospects. Surely that's not about coaching Canada because it's worded awfully if that's the case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilzyme 769 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 LOLOLOLOLOL Dreger talking about Babs as a replacement to Red Berenson at Michigan. From Wings to Michigan. LOLOLOLOLOL HF was saying that he apparently has stated that he doesn't like NHL travel. His daughter still goes to school here, and apparently he wants to coach his son? I'm not sure, but that's what they were saying. They stated it like a well known rumor. Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger1m Suggestions Babcock will be Red Berenson's successor at U of Mich. Babcock says not true. 2 yrs left on deal with Det and he's very happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AusWing40 61 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 That's how media works though. Post things in a way that generates more buzz. Success. While true, most expect Babcock to coach Canada after taking them to a gold medal last Olympics, so it wouldn't be a shocker to see him named again. Just feel it's about something not related to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 You wonder why this rumor - which is all it is right now- was started. That doesn't strike me as Dreger's style. To make waves at this point in the season? Whaaaat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
