The Edmonton Oilers want to hire Mike Babcock as their next head coach, but it looks like they have to wait until his investigation is done from when he was with the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2023.
Apparently, there are some significant claims from the investigation that weren’t reported that year, according to NHL insider Frank Seravalli.
“If Oilers elect to continue down the path with Mike Babcock, sources say the NHLPA is in receipt of “significant” additional claims from their own investigation with players that were not publicly reported in 2023. Those claims were presented to NHL prior to his resignation,” Seravalli wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
More on this story to come.
