Following accusations of a breach of privacy of his players, where he would reportedly cast players' private photos and scroll through them, Mike Babcock was placed under investigation by the NHLPA.
While veterans such as Boone Jenner and Johnny Gaudreau came to Babcock's defense, it appears a wave of concern from younger players has made this investigation much more potent.
Now, insider Darren Dreger has dropped a major update - Babcock's job may be on the line depending on the outcome of this investigation.
It's safe to say that this has been a disaster for the Blue Jackets. Whether he sticks around or not, he'll be a wildly contentious figure. The era of Mike Babcock in the NHL has been �over' so many times; at what point will it truly be over for good?
