One Cup man, in a league where the toughest competition exists he has one Cup. Let’s relax, here there’s nothing wrong with disagreeing with what the coach does. Even redwings fans hated some of his decisions. Nobody is saying they’re a better coach than Babcock, some people didn’t like one decision no need to blow so much smoke.
Was it crazy for the “arm chair” GM’s like myself to believe that a rebuild was necessary? Surely I’m an idiot compared to Burke and Nonis right seeing as they have a mountain full of information I could only dream of....
You know Burke was hired because he sold them a mandate that said he could retool on the fly and a rebuild was not necessary, so rebuilding was not really an option for either of them? Were you smarter than the guys who owned the team? Well let's just say you were less motivated by greed.
So that comparison is pretty weak. Coaching is a bit different. If you really feel you can make a better decision than Babcock with a fraction of the information he has all I can tell you is you should get job in the NHL. Is Babcock perfect? Probably not. Still I am inclined to believe he and his staff have valid reasons for what they are doing and I am prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt.
