I want to be respectful here.

Like, where is the line between banished and retired?

Like respectfully, right?

How many other teams were coming to Mike Babcock?

How many coaching openings have there been since he left Columbus?

I'm going to venture to guess just about every team, right?

So was he retired or was there just no option to come back?

Now, I understand why the Oilers have done this.

Yep.

But I think for it to be like, and look, Babcock, you know, I was retired.

I was happy being retired.

But when you have Connor and Leon ask you to come to town, well, that's tough to resist.

All right.

He has shaped this perfectly for himself.

He has.

Hey, man, Connor McDavid asked me if I'd come out of retirement and coach.

Guess I'm willing to do that.

There is so much more to that.

That is so oversimplified.

But from his perspective, that's a good way to look at it.
