    Blue Jackets

    Interesting times in Columbus right now, not too mention everywhere else.
    I will predict Babcock gets released in the next few days.

    On the flip side, their roster seems loaded with young talent mixed with solid veterans.

    Based on the article and Jenner's statement, it doesn't seem like anything bad happened. Has a player actually complained or is someone trying to make something out of nothing?
    Collecting 2017 Leafs Centennial, Roberto Luongo (Vancouver years), and Mitch Marner. Mild interest in other Leafs and goalies (especially from Canadian teams).

    The NHLPA flew some people to Columbus to see if they can get an answer to that exact question.

    Lol!

    I'm not really a fan of him because I've heard some bad things about his coaching style, but I don't think it's fair that he needed to resign over this. Unless of course, he did actually act inappropriately. His resignation makes me wonder what the full story is....

    An abusive personality shouldn't be confused with a demanding coaching style. Full story here:

    Yeah, I read an article that refreshed my memory about stuff he's done. Columbus probably never should've hired him, but at least they got rid of him at the first sign of trouble.

    I don't know if anyone follows hockeyilluminati on Instagram, but he's hilarious (even for a Leafs fan) -- he ran through the top 5 brutal things Babock has done during his various coaching jobs. He's just...a jerk. Sitting out Modano in the last game of the season so he was stuck on 1,499 games. Benching Chelios in the Winter Classic. Sitting Spezza in the Leafs' season opener against Ottawa.

    Wow, that's brutal for Modano. A good team management would have organized a little ceremony before the game to celebrate 1500 games played, and at least make him do a few shifts.
