Baffling that a guy who knew full well the reputation that preceded him and the scrutiny that he would face from former players watching would just go right back to the #### that got him canned on day 1.

Can’t stand Babcock. Hope he doesn’t get another gig and is done in the NHL.

Hopefully teams learn their lesson about old boys club hires from this but we all know they won’t

Veterans maybe, but what about gaudreau can anyone say that implies he was ever a team leader? Team leaders don't do "damage control" to protect their coach and marginalize their younger teammates. Seems kind of counterproductive to earning the respect of your teammates, no?

So how much does this cost CBJ? And how does Jarmo keep his job if it's anywhere close to the full $8 million?

They should hire Guy Gaudreau as associate coach.

NHL organizations in general need move away from retread coaches altogether.

That has to be a new record, right? Has any coach been fired before every coaching a game?

How many years has this scumbag sat at home and collected a paycheque now.
Jarmo absolutely needs to be fired after this as well.

On the other hand, the "New Coach Bounce" should be over by the end of pre-season.
