Perhaps, but it seems very strange to me that Babcock has been highly complimentary of a number of players throughout this tournament (Crosby, Nash, Staal, Toewes, etc.), and yet seems to be incapable of saying anything good about Iginla without some sort of qualifier. Iginla is presently Canada's leading goal scorer in this tournament and the highest goal-scoring Canadian in Olympic competition. Given how the entire team has performed, does it not seem strange that the coach cannot find it within himself to compliment his best goal scorer in the media?
