Oilers Bank On Babcock To Get Them Over Top

tbh i dont think its all about proven success, babcock has won with different teams before, and hes still got some juice in him imo

ngl i think you make a good point, babcock has won before and hes definitely got some experience under his belt, its not like theyre taking a complete rookie or something... @Oilers4Life

dont get me wrong, babcock did win in detroit, but like @Oilers4Life said, that was a long time ago and what's his track record since?

@jake_oilers yeah thats true, babcocks track record isnt exactly stellar after detroit... but like @section7edm said, hes still got experience and he knows how to get teams ready for playoffs at least imo

ngl babcock hasnt won anything in years so its hard to say hes got juice left man... and yeah he did win in detroit but its like u said, thats ages ago @Oilers4Life

@Oilers4Life: yeah i guess thats a fair point, but i think babcock is more about prep and systems than relying on star power, and if he can get our guys to buy in its worth a shot imo @section7edm

ngl i think prep and systems are just buzzwords if u dont have the guys to execute, but idk whats in babcocks bag of tricks honestly @Oilers4Life

@Oilers4Life: fair enough, but tbh babcock's track record shows hes been able to get decent teams to playoffs and idk if we're in a position to turn down prep work at the least @section7edm
