Despite 58 wins and the President’s Cup, which is given to best regular season record, Mike Babcock knows his Red Wings must do something about their recent playoff troubles.
“The measuring stick for us is (how we do) at playoff time,” Babcock said. “That was a real sour ending.
“We were the fifth best team of all-time last season during the regular season. We were good offensively, good defensively. It seemed we were able to play any (type of) game. But we were unable to score and unable to keep it out at playoff time — and we got beat by a better team at playoff time in Edmonton. We have to address those things (that went awry).”
The Record Eagle’s Dennis Chase talked to the coach and got some of his thoughts on goaltending, the Captain’s retirement, and more heading into the 2006-07 season.
