Throughout his career, former NHL head coach Mike Babcock has had the word success attached to his name. Many teams have adopted his style of play where his teams would play a heavy puck possession and keep the opponent to the outside with a strong defence.
It was announced earlier this year that Babcock had retired from coaching after spending some time with his hometown University of Saskatchewan as their head coach. It appears now that news is growing that he may become a candidate for the New York Rangers job that just opened after they fired Gerald Gallant.
