I dunno, i havent seen anyone get to excessive with their complaining yet. Maybe you can point one out

Dont kick players, be racist, or be a total piece of shit like Babs. I dont think thats excessive or soft, just catching up to the standards of every other professional sport on the planet.

Its basically been coaches getting called out for shit they shouldnt do.

When coaches get called out for shit they should do its gone too far. Havent seen that.


This is all true. I have never liked Babcock but now theres proof he is a shitbag.

The point I want to make is the precedent this sets. The posts have been moved.

Way less room to make a mistake and what is seen as abuse has been changed dramatically.

The game has changed.

Imo there is overwhelming evidence of Babcock being a shitbag and more shit coming out every couple days.

Ur right, the posts definitely have moved but imo they should, hockey is well behind every other pro sport and still quite old-fashioned

Even the oldheads with missing teeth and more concussions than they can count are pointing out shit was fucked up

Posts had to move, hopefully they stop at the right point and dont go to far.
Havent gone to far yet imo, hopefully they dont.

Being a coach or manager is going to be extremely difficult now.

Times have changed.

Those once revered for their tactics will soon be shamed for what they have done.

Glen Sather used to wake players up in the middle of night banging pots and pans walking up and down the hotel floor.

This is not discussed much and ive only seen it written in books.

He had that 80's Oilers team fearful of him, yet they respected him at the same time.

He molded a young Gretzky, Messier, Kurri, Coffey etc into the dominant players we know them as.

They were scared of him, but he was the first to defend them when anybody else called them out.

Whipping those young guys into shape may have come with some questionable tactics but it worked.



Now options are limited. A coach will have to motivate without any hint of abuse (verbal and physical). If a player challenges a coach he can't rip the guy a new one for stepping out of line.

It will be very difficult to keep a room together. The society we live in now has gone to an extreme imo. Someone can say one bad thing to me at work and I can go to HR and bitch..... does that make it right?

I could get people fired for the things they said to me, which is ridiculous because in years passed much worse has been said to me and nobody would bat an eye. We have gotten too soft imo.

I do not approve of racism, physical abuse or verbal abuse, but what we now define as abuse is too soft in my opinion.


Thank you. 100% its 2019 man... the world is soft. Smdh lol

Soft as a babies shit.

I’ve been verbally abused by previous journeyman electrician back in 2008. I should write a book about it.

Where’s the line? Pretty clear. Nobody cares if an angry coach yelled at you. But if you’re a total piece of shit then this is a welcome reckoning.

Only thing ludicrous is that you think a jsp persona is as accountable as the coach of a multi million dollar public facing hockey club
