Scandal coach Mike Babcock may return to the Oilers
The Oilers are investigating the possibility of rehiring the controversial coach.
The Edmonton Oilers are considering re-hiring Mike Babcock, according to TSN's Darren Dreger. The club has opened talks with the players' union NHLPA to investigate possible obstruction following Babcock's previous allegations of physical and mental abuse in Toronto and Columbus. Babcock resigned from Columbus in 2023 before he had coached a single game, following allegations that he solicited players for private photos.
