Has head coach Mike Babcock ruled the Buffalo Sabres off the list along with the Detroit Red Wings as the bench which he will stand behind next season?
Reports are that Babcock has informed the Detroit Red Wings that he will no longer be affiliated with their franchise. Detroit was set to make Babcock the highest paid coach in the National Hockey League, but apparently Babcock was looking for more money and more promise of winning.
The Detroit Red Wings have struggled to make the playoffs the last few seasons, despite keeping their post season record alive.
