This story about what Babs did to Marner is one lone incident, but it's chilling precisely because of how - and there's no other word for it - abusive it is. There is zero professional excuse for doing this, unless your professionalism includes wanting to be Stanley Milgram.

If there is EVER a time to sit down and examine the conduct of a high-profile coach like Babcock, it should be right now. But there's a habitual rush to try and cushion the blow because of the good he was seen to have done early on, which makes speaking up even harder.

I get that it's an uncomfortable conversation to have; that many feel fondly about the guy's history. But how does a league like the NHL hope to ever weed out abusive cultures if people who try and start a conversation about guys like Babcock are told it's not their place?

ANYWAY. Gonna listen to the rest of the episode now and hopefully feel less skeeved out.
