only real problem I had with Babcock was benching Doughty after 1 mistake, a little harsh when he had been playing well
Neidermeyer is lost out there though, he is the worst pick on the team and its not even close
and I am assuming Iginla is injured for him to be benched, I don't think hes the top winger on the team like many people said, but he should be playing more than Morrow and Bergeron

What game were you watching? Toews was completely ineffective in that 3rd period on the top line, which made them a non factor. Iginla has had about 15 minutes of ice time in 120 minutes of play, has scored 3 times and set up Crosby on 3 glorious occasions yet he still finds himself as Babcocks whipping boy. If he isn't hurt BabCOCK is a moron.
Getzlaf was a turnover machine in that 3rd period, Niedermayer looked like beer leaguer the entire game, Pronger was making stupid selfish plays all night, Staal couldn't even receive a pass and Nash was trying to be Bobby Orr the entire game and these guys were rewarded with MORE ice time. Embarassing bench management and BabCOCK needs to get his head out of his a$$ if this nation has any chance at the gold medal!
