If Babcock had to choose between Seattle and the Islanders? I think he, or any coach, would prefer Seattle.
You still haven't told me why the Islanders are a sought after destination. Why exactly? They've been dismal for years, even with a superstar. Their defence is awful. They've got a GM who likely took the job for the nepotistic opportunity it'll give his son. BTW, this HOF GM didn't really do a great job at his last team either and made some bad, bad decisions during his last couple of years in NJ.
I think that you keep point to Lamoriello as a positive just to troll leafs fans. He's aged badly.
Funny what I call a hockey discussion with a poster, even one like you without anything to back up a position, you call as trolling which is against site rules I will remind you. Really, the inference that the Isles are a horrible organization now with 2 great owners what I can observe, and the credibility Lou adds since coming aboard, are not too subtly hidden in your narrative. Nevertheless:
You are the one that said
It is you that needs to back up this position. I don't have to back up anything since I did not post this. So if you can, try to explain why a Stanley cup winning coach that could coach almost anywhere in the NHL when an opening arises, would choose to coach an expansion team of all teams if this is the case.Seattle is a way, way better option for any coach.
