He highlights Babcock’s proven leadership, willingness to challenge even stars, and elite resume: 700 NHL wins, a Stanley Cup with Detroit in 2008, and two Olympic golds. The Oilers are carefully vetting options, consulting ownership and the NHLPA, but MacTavish is convinced Babcock’s pedigree and boldness could be the key to turning the franchise around.
