Here's an article bemoaning that Babcock hasn't won it yet, but as an aside I always thought of it as something of a "kiss of death" for coaches. Okay so I guess I'm the porcupine at the balloon party or that's just the natural turnover of NHL coaches.

If we were to break down the list of the past 10 winners we would find three coaches without a job at the moment, and three more who have since been fired by the team with which they received the award, yet through it all Babcock remains a Red Wing.
