Clearly Babcock has been out coached so far. The positives to playing in the qualification round are:
1)Babcock gets a chance to keep the 4 lines TOGETHER for a whole game to get some chemistry. If everyone in Canada can see that changing the lines every 2 shifts is having a negative effect, why can't he?
2) Lou gets some game action/warm up before the Russians
3)Maybe the PP can get on track (seriously babcock, the Getzlaf-Perry-Staal/Crosby combo isn't working, stick with Iggy-Crosby-Nash and the SJ line)
