The Edmonton Oilers 🇨🇦 have decided to hire 🇨🇦Mike Babcock as their new head coach, after the NHL approved the hiring following an investigation…

“While we found the allegations of Mike Babcock’s conduct as the Columbus Blue Jackets’ head coach very concerning, the League has decided that there is no current basis on which to restrict his employment,” the NHLPA said in a statement.

Babcock most recently was the head coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets 🇺🇸 in 2023 but resigned before their first regular season game. This was due to accusations of improperly searching through player’s smartphones.

The 63-year-old has notably coached the Detroit Red Wings 🇺🇸 to a Stanley Cup in 2008, along with leading Canada 🇨🇦 to gold medal wins on 5 occasions (1997 WJC, 2004 WC, 2010 OG, 2014 OG, 2016 WCOH).
