I met Mike on a flight from Calgary to Los Angeles. He is a nice guy and he is fucking HUGE! Had no idea he was that big! Love that he speaks his mind about Babcock!
Yeah, I absolutely love it. Because it isn't coming from a place of envy ... but from a desire for some simple justice. I'd much rather have Commie as a coach and lose than Babs as a coach and win.
Thanks for giving us a true illustration of what Babcock really is. Just ignore the idiots making excuses & justifying what the rest of us can see for ourselves now.
Look what he did to Mitch Marner of the Leafs. Used him to squeal on other players when Marner was a green rookie. Then there’s what he did to Spezza when the Leafs picked him up and his first appearance back to Ottawa since he left,
Thanks to Commodore and Bissonnette Babcock’s hope of revitalizing his NHL coaching career is done. I sure as hell hope Babs never gets in the Hall of Game!
How many managers and people in positions of power who work in the business world do and have done what Babock did? If it took this long to out Babcock in an industry that is covered by the media so intensely god help anyone getting abused in large Corporations or Government. They are all protected!!! I like Mike Commodore for speaking the truth!!! Need more of that!!!
Well, technically, Babcock didn't do anything illegal. He was just vindictive and mean, which... if you want to go that way as a leader, it's a wide-open route.

@@jamesbond4633 Lol take a look around, these systems are in place to avoid lawsuits. No one cares about anyone expect themselves in the grand scheme of things.
Commodore said it- Babcock is a bully and a total maniac/madman. He has been given how many chances and blown them? Too many to mention. Enough of Babcock some high praise for Commie- an articulate, down to earth man who speaks the truth and hasn't lost any of the "Swagger." A good player to look up to- and tough.
If any of this type of behaviour by Babcock is true, then he doesn't deserve to go into The Hall. Eagleson got bounced after he was already in, so Babcock can easily be blocked.
It's generational. New generations won't put up with the same stuff we did. You can't get away with the same stuff so if you are born in the late 60s/70s you need to realize that.
Babcock inherited those Wings teams. He won Cups off them, and anybody can coach Canada!!! Literally anybody! All you gotta do is roll 4 lines. Very simple. When you have gold medalist on your resume as a coach does it hold weight? It’s a lot to do with the talent on the team.
He kinda has the right. He was vindicated after being a lone voice in the wilderness (and to be fair, he put his name to it). He has the right to victory lap lol
Imagine some of the really old school stories. Those were different kinds of men. Other types are constantly seeking attention. I’m sure guy’s working on railroad tracks were abused too, without the millions
I have only the vaguest sense of what you're trying to say. And guys on the railroads track were abused - and now we have unions. So they dealt with it too.
How many players have complained about Babcock? I don't see Lidstrom, Zetterberg or Datsyuk say one thing. I didn't realize coaches and players were meant to be best friends. If you had hundreds of players come forward, okay, Commodore, Modano, Franzen, Marner.... Shanahan played for him and then he hired him. Grow up. People won't get along but should work toward a goal. Babcock had success as a coach.
Mike Commodore should get a life and move on from slamming Babcock at every opportunity. It's been 10 years, yes, we all get that you have a problem with him but grow up, put your big boy pants on and get over it. It's beyond tiresome anymore...
The only reason why Commodore has any relevance is because he trashes Babcock in nearly every direction. One is a perennial successful coach. The other is literally a has been 😂
Commodore is kind of a waterhead that went to Detroit on his own accord, after hearing his story…the fact that he took the bait and signed with Detroit on the first day of free agency, like he was not going to geta sniff for anywhere afterwards… it’s unfortunate that it happened, but in my opinion he already knew how Babcock works, so why would you chance it? I don’t like Babcock at all, but Commodore is an enabler for signing with Babcock knowing he is going to fuck with him
I met Mike on a flight from Calgary to Los Angeles. He is a nice guy and he is fucking HUGE! Had no idea he was that big! Love that he speaks his mind about Babcock!
True
Met him at a place he trained at years ago. He’s a stand up guy. NHL was lucky to have him.
Seeing Commie’s glee at Babcock’s downfall never fails to make me laugh
Yeah, I absolutely love it. Because it isn't coming from a place of envy ... but from a desire for some simple justice. I'd much rather have Commie as a coach and lose than Babs as a coach and win.
Babcock inherited a Red Wing team that had four future HoFers and his antics seem to have started after Yzerman and Shanahan left.
100 percent, also he never had won anything yet a was not gonna do this to Pavel, zettaburg and Lindstrom. Guys who had a cup.
Dude u crack me up. Alwsys a great interview. Loved your hair in Calgary

Commy has made a post hockey career living, off of taking about Babcock. Hes got some great Babcock stories.
I love Mike Commodore. The guy is authentic. He seems like a cool guy.
Modono 1499
Yeah that was horrible. Spezza too. Brutal.
Getting fired like that couldn't happen to a more deserving, evil person.
Bullying shouldn't be tolerated...especially from people of power. He was messing with people's livelihood.
Old hockey jocks tell the best story’s !
Can he run a practice? Sure.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fck Comm’s, you’re the best!! Love this dude.
Commie used to spearhead my checking line on NHL 02. Funny dude.

Seen Babcock in Calgary. What does he tell his family.
I feel the most sorry for Babcock’s three kids. I don’t imagine it was a healthy experience growing up with a control freak like this as your father.
I’m here for all the Commodore content. I’m not a fan of any team he’s played for but I fucking love this guy,
I love this dude,,commodore you rock,,I remember him played little on the farm team saint-john flames
I love Commie. Glad he got his vindication.
Babs treatment of players was unacceptable

How are there so many upvotes and hardly any views ? Makes no sense
Would have been proud to have you on the Maple Leafs Mike
Babcock inherited those Wings teams. He won Cups off them, and anybody can coach Canada!!!

Love commodore.
Never saw this podcast, i thought it was Connor mcdavid on the right😅
Boone Jenner should be mad the team made him be the face of the team in regards to Babcock. We knew the joint statement was BS.
Just say no.
Best thumbnail picture of commie ever
It's a good thing Babcock is no longer with the Blue Jackets,,, now they are thriving and killing it 😂😂😂.
lol.
babs is a clown.
He’s obsessed with talking about Babcock.
Abusive people often have a deep impact on the people they abuse.
He kinda has the right. He was vindicated after being a lone voice in the wilderness (and to be fair, he put his name to it). He has the right to victory lap lol
@@kiroolioneaver8532if he had one single brain cell left, he would know that he should not sign with the Redwings to let Babcock continue his bullshit
He doesn’t want to talk about all the money he stole from NHL organizations
Because he got FK’d by that Dooshbag
Not a Babcock fan but id like to here his side of the story. All I got are ex player rants……
Check out his interview with the Cam and Strick podcast
Mike Commodores whole personality revolves around Babcock its weird AF
Commodore pulled off the greatest heist in NHL history. He should shut his trap.
Nah
Imagine some of the really old school stories. Those were different kinds of men. Other types are constantly seeking attention. I’m sure guy’s working on railroad tracks were abused too, without the millions
I have only the vaguest sense of what you're trying to say. And guys on the railroads track were abused - and now we have unions. So they dealt with it too.
Hope he hets another chance with a team
LOL Comrie was a hack!!!

Chelios & Modano
I’ve heard door men complain he was a total douche to them too. I don’t think there is too many guys defending Babcock
@@Whowhatmesource: trust me bro the DOORMAN said it
You're delusional man.
Babcock should have won wayyyy more with that red wings roster
Let it go dude.
this dudes life revolves around babcock lmao
Mike Commodore should get a life and move on from slamming Babcock at every opportunity. It's been 10 years, yes, we all get that you have a problem with him but grow up, put your big boy pants on and get over it. It's beyond tiresome anymore...
Babcock still had a job for those 10 years. He obviously didnt slam him enough.
"Big boy pants"? Your name is Billy. Between you and Commodore, I know who's the "little boy".
Mike Commadore is no better of a dude with the way he conducts himself lmfao
Put that to a poll, and I think you'll find yourself in the minority there, Dan-o.
The only reason why Commodore has any relevance is because he trashes Babcock in nearly every direction. One is a perennial successful coach. The other is literally a has been 😂
It's true and it's everyday
Technically, Babcock is a has-been too there, Skitch.
Bitter much
Do your research. He certainly has the right (as do many other guys), to throw this AH under the bus
Commodore is kind of a waterhead that went to Detroit on his own accord, after hearing his story…the fact that he took the bait and signed with Detroit on the first day of free agency, like he was not going to geta sniff for anywhere afterwards… it’s unfortunate that it happened, but in my opinion he already knew how Babcock works, so why would you chance it?
I don’t like Babcock at all, but Commodore is an enabler for signing with Babcock knowing he is going to fuck with him
Why chance it? I dunno, a six-figure salary probably had something to do with it. Just a guess.
He had 15 minutes to earn a million dollars or potentially sit out the season. He made the best decision he could.
A handful of people trash Babcock but he has a army that will defend him, just like Sutter
Can you name 1 person defending Babcock?
@@Whowhatme your aunt
This does not appear to be true, Jesus.
@@jon8004 you people are weak
@@boganjesus3277 Whatever the case, I'm right.
Babs lives in commodores head rent free....its actually embarrassing.....he thought you were a bum and had zero hesitation replacing you, get over it
Waste of a career...and not talking about babcock
Just say what you mean and be done with it.
