Friedman on Babcock-to-Penguins speculation
/Elliotte Friedman was on Calgary’s Sportsnet 960 on Monday morning.
As part of a larger discussion on the struggles of the Pittsburgh Penguins:
“And I’ll tell you this – if Pittsburgh doesn’t get into the playoffs, you are going to hear Mike Babcock rumours out of the wazoo. If Pittsburgh doesn’t get into the playoffs, that’s going to be – I know all year it’s been Toronto, it’s been wherever you want to name it. It’s going to go crazy. It’s going to start from Pittsburgh and it’s going to be nuts, the Mike Babcock rumours you’re going to hear out of there.”
