Mike Babcock was at one time one of the most popular and well respected Head Coach's in hockey, until we've learned the real Mike Babcock.
Babcock use to center out certain players and made life unbearable for some including NHL Legend Mike Modano, and most notably Mitch Marner before he was fired by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Babcock then joined the University of Saskatchewan as the Head Coach back in 2021 but has decided to resign as the Huskies Coach passing the role on to Brandin Cote, who served under Babcock as an assistant coach last season.
