Gotta give credit where credit is due. Babcock has won a Stanley Cup and two Olympic gold medals. I wouldn't call that overrated even if he never won another game in his lifetime.

I get it that Team Canada in 2010 & 2014 were exceptionally talented, but a team from 87 and others wasn't too shabby with a few guys named Gretzky, Lemieux, Messier, Coffey, Hawerchuk and go down the list.

The coach still has to coach and win. Managing the pressure of 2010 with half the country watching isn't a walk in the park
