Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I imagine your keyboard as a bunch of letters and then a period button the size of Tyra Banks' forehead. OMG LOL NAMBLA I was referring more to the idea that I can't see him leaving Detroit for another team on the decline--if he leaves it's an attempt to improve his situation, not maintain the status quo in a new zip code. Fair enough. I'd take Boston on roster and city right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 So I can't judge the draft but you can judge Babcock's thoughts on what he wants to do in the future? :P Correct. This is the internet, after all :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brawndo Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 You know what's closer to Boston than Edmonton?........Boston....... If I was leaving for college and my parents decided to relocate to the same city I would be a little ticked off OMG LOL NAMBLA Fair enough. I'd take Boston on roster and city right now. Would you say the same thing in two years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Babcock is supposedly so good, and he is bailing Detroit....then probably yes. In general....yes. Myself....I think I've said it before....I'm more into the tradition and city than current potential of any team, If I removed my Buffalo bias. I'd love to work for Toronto, Boston, Rangers, Philly, Montreal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Man/Boy_Love_Association The hell did you just make me google?

Salary Cap Issues, unsettled management structure, and going from the Iltichs to the Jacobs, I highly doubt that is attractive to him. If anything his relationship with Bob Nicholson and the chance to coach Mc David puts Edmonton into the lead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'm curious how many teams are going to wait for Babcock to get off the fence if he can't sign until July. There are some other good options out there right now. Bird in the hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Amerk Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 SO you're saying I'll be able to find such a thing at IKEA?

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 For $25, they better be legit. Dejungelvrol was the good stuff. It came from a friend who had the reindeer sausage he was trying to bring also, taken at customs. Sumnabiatches. I bought a Dutch version on Amazon and it was just straight ammonia. The good stuff is salty, clears yours sinuses and wakes you up, and then is a tasty treat at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 where is that coming from ?

Hoss Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 where is that coming from ? He's under contract until then, but the RWs can certainly let him talk if he doesn't want to stay there They said they will take advantage of the exclusive negotiating window they have. That's their stance right now. If he makes it clear he wants to see what's out there then Detroit might let him talk... They have no real rush in finding a solution with him because they can wait him out until July and then just promote their AHL coach which is the assumption many have made. Of course a team interested in Babcock may be smart to request permission to speak with Blashill to make it seem like their fallback plan might walk.

Patty16 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) I think Detroit has said that it wants to use its exclusive negotiation period until July 1. The latest I could find was Holland saying yesterday he will hopefully know by end of the month (may) Holland said he would "give myself the month of May and hope it's concluded by then — or close to it." He leaves Saturday for the Czech Republic to catch the world championships. http://www.freep.com/story/sports/nhl/red-wings/2015/05/04/mike-babcock-detroit-red-wings/26885519/ Edited May 5, 2015 by Patty16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
