Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer · Oilers Head Coach Mike Babcock (6/23/26) · 23 Jun 2026 podcast

We had good goaltending.

I remember when we first got our first road win.

I remember when we beat U of A on the road.

All these little steps that had never happened in the U of L. But for us to win the national championship that year, that's what set me up to get the job in Spokane and really get my career going.

And, you know, I worked for a great owner in Bobby Brett and Tim Spouts there and got a chance to coach the World Juniors.

So that's where you got momentum.

And I don't care who you are.

If you haven't won, you don't know how to win.

But once you win, you think you have a formula.

And, you know, I was lucky that happened early, so you ended up having lots and lots of success.

As you know, it's almost impossible to win.

And I don't care if that's at the Olympic Games, the World Championship, World Junior, whatever it is, the Stanley Cup.

But someone gets to do it, and why not us?

Well, to be honest with you, is I'm so blessed because of the family I have, the friendships I have, the people I have in my life and the support you have.

Now, every day in your life, you could do some things better.

And so you try to get better at all those things.

You know, I'm lucky.

I have adult children that are very successful in their careers.

They have opinions and they don't mind sharing with you.

And they help you get better and be a better man.
