Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

I actually think they’d be better with Babcock. And that isn’t really meant to be a compliment of Babcock…. I am not a fan of what Vincent is doing.
Oh, I'm certain they would look better with Babs, but the guy had a TOXIC reputation. How could anybody think that was going to end well? Especially a team that's rebuilding. Just a stupid hire from the get go.

You mean the mind games with the vets?

Vincent is playing mind games with the vets too. Just different ones. Scratching your best players after they had a bad period is not the way. None of the team's good players are playing well, and the players who should suck are playing well. Team plays a defensive system with a blue line mostly compromised of offensive defensemen. The fact that their best dman this year is arguably Gudbranson should be more of an indictment than a compliment.

The Babcock hire was a total disaster, and the org deserves everything it got for it. And it will continue to fail with Vincent since he is trying to fit a square peg through a round hole. This team isn't built to play a conservative defense game. Its best players are Laine and Gaudreau! Open it up.

To be fair, I haven't watched every game.
