nyqvististhefuture 1,002 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Is Babcock a Great coach ? Yes but I'm starting to get really annoyed this Babcock leaving stuff where it's like I don't even care anymore, just let him go already Is he really a coaching god? Yes he won 2 medals but his roster were full of hall of famers and when we went back to back to the finals we had a great roster , all I'm saying is I don't think it'll be the of June world if he left and I think jeff Blashill would do a good job here and really help out with the young talent we got coming If people think Babcock to Pittsburgh = sure cups then good luck with that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he wants to be here, resign him. If not, oh well. He's not Scotty Bowman. Championships follow Scotty around. Babcock is a good coach. When championships start following him around instead of him stepping into championship teams, then I will bestow "great coach" status on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mckinley25 678 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Not to take anything away from Bowman because I think he was the greatest coach of all time, but Babcock's likely facing different challenges and it's hard to compare. Besides, he has 3 finals appearances and one cup in a little over a decade, that's not bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
