I mean...its dumb. If that was his actual strategy then he's a far bigger idiot than even I thought he was, but I wouldnt say its 'impossible.'

So you think it's more likely that Babcock devised a brilliant plan to piss off a guy who was going to represent his country which he has done countless times by making a 4th line grinder and bench him while almost costing team Canada in the Olympics?
Or it's more likely like the story said that he told Iginla we don't need you to score but be a grinder in an attempt to bury and embarrass a proud man and have it blow up in his face as Iginla and Crosby carried Canada to gold and now no one remembers the jackass for anything in 2014 it's Crosby screaming Iggy.
I bet that really stings Babs.
