It was his Red Wings fans and the NHL with the rest of the message. reason for optimism: Babcock are both new and familiar faces and around: Red Wings dressing room these days.


Veteran coach took recently to sit at Traverse City with the nhl.com NHL prospects Tournament to discuss the 2010-11 season.

Nhl.com: what players had in your eyes, this year the possibilities of competition?


BABCOCK: "Joakim Andersson-kids is a strong and seems to be down the road, in a safe, secure player. Tomas qo is clear there are some Real skill--he reminds me of the Jiri Hudler slightly.He anticipates and makes plays, hangs puck well.(Brendan) Smith is a State-of-the-art skill with a buddy. His game is to develop without the puck, a little, but I like how strong he is and how he rollers. He or she sees and move the puck quite well.(Landon)Ferraro is also an opportunity ... it seems that he has some skill level. I was also impressed (Brian) Lashoff (6-foot-3, 207 pounds) in size, and I like the goalie McCollum (Thomas). So has six children and when no matter how big or small, it is difficult to have six children, that you've already really excited about the organization. It may be, too, but there are those that have been imported to me. "


Nhl.com: Seems like the young goalie is inspiring Thomas McCollum to see Jimmy Howard achieved the success of the minors?


BABCOCK: "I think it is real. Behold, this is the human League and it is not easy at all.It's difficult for all.A classic example is the goalie (Steve) Mason Columbus. I think the Mason is an asterisk. He was a star in his first year and (coach Ken Hitchcock) did a great job with the team. [3] [4] But his second year of the struggles of the Mason and hitch is no longer the coach. Mason will be this year, but it is how difficult it must be good in them. I know that a little AHL McCollum tried, but it is good. Have to learn how to fight through tough times;all part of it is is a big job. McCollum-worrying and fought hard all summer (goalie coach Jim Bedard training). "

Nhl.com: what Jimmy Howard learn from last season?


BABCOCK: "of course, he believes he is good, and he was good.Now he must be good this year and if he puts together a good period of 18 consecutive, then you can like (Chris Osgood) ... the real ones. Specifically it year after year, the real and the message only, such as in life, it is really clear. Your ups must be longer than their own, the insert row. It does not mean that it does not come to any of the drop downs, but you can give those things weigh heavy for you, or you can let the insert row and moves it to the instantaneous. "
Nhl.com: what does it mean to Jiri Hudler Red Wings at?

BABCOCK: "IT means 70 points.It means the second power-play unit is as good as the first power-play unit might be better.(Dan)Cleary, (Mike) Modano and Huds can be started at the same time in a row. He is good and know how to play this game. It is great to him or her back. He made his career in its decision (to use the last of the season in the KONTINENTAL HOCKEY LEAGUE), but there are a lot of respect. I think it was the right decision? No, but it is reasonable to him. Information about decisions taken by the great thing is, when as you make them, you can move. He is behind, and we are fond of. He does not need to prove anything to me; I know he is the author of the play. "
Nhl.com: what Mike Modano displays Red Wings?

BABCOCK:

"He has been a good player for a long time. (Pavel Datsyuk) centralizes Z (Henrik Zetterberg) and on the right side is a Homer (Tomas follows), Bert (Todd Bertuzzi) and Cleary (Dan). I do not know what they have to play at the line, but I know that I got the Z, Pavel, (Johan), Franzen Fil (Valtteri Filppula) and with Modano Hudler. So he intends to play with good players. If I have others in the group, my first defensive pair plays Pavel v Fil and third second against Modano--which is the third line to the realities. He really skate and I like it, they shall contain a reference to a change in him. The change is exciting. I believe that we should change our professions every 10 years. When you move to a new, you've raised slightly nervous and instantaneous suspect. Those things will help him, and we believe that he is still a lot of ice hockey left in him.He intends to be happy that the Red Wing. [1] [2] He intends to get the puck to a tape, such as his or her defence unless it is a good player and he played us transport unit of the second power-play. "

Nhl.com: what makes Detroit General Manager Ken Holland so good what he makes?


BABCOCK: "he is a passionate man who loves ice hockey.He is a member of the 24/7, is a large numbers of guy and very intelligent.He has received the philosophy and he did not depart from the text.Always talk about "success circle."What that means, you can practice, then run.When you run, you must establish and lead to the strengthening of the passion, because you like it, and start it again.After confirmation, your expectations to get a little bit higher.So now you're waiting for more success with a circle.When periodically Ken's success was, and has been a steady the rudder and the patient, and he knows what he does is right.As soon as may be someone who has not had the success does not depart from the text.His knowledge and ability to work with people in the right way to really give him a funny person around.The things that it, to go a lot, but for me, he is a man who has been in business forever, and he does not do it and work hard on a daily basis, passionate about. "


Nhl.com: Chris Chelios Is excited to have been in accordance with the rules of procedure on board?


BABCOCK: "we're fond of. I like to take a man who is the final competitor, which left only playing. (I) a set of questions was asked recently in some Cheli minor league coaches are talking and we had to discuss practical. what player such as? how long the meeting can be a player? what is the best way to teach this?, he is still thinking like a player, but for seven years, now he does not intend to thinking as a player.(Lightning GM Steve)Yzerman view now, he is a big believer. I manage the surrounding yourself with the best human and they issues. Finally, you don't need to make your decisions of which he is a wealth of information ... to us, if we tap this richness. He has just find out he has got his job and his work. [4] [5] finding find her passion, and find out where he can hold. it helps (Brendan) Smith better or manipulating (puolustajapelaaja Jakub Kindl)? it helps automotive power Play or penalty kill? Is it simply coming to me and ask, "Hey, why you are not playing with that guy?"I am all ears. "
