Today, former Detroit Red Wings executive and coach Chris Chelios went on the Spittin Chiclets podcast and was asked about Mike Babcock. A Twitter user, unrelated to the podcast or the host site (Barstool Sports, which I will not link to), posted this excerpt:
Later on Monday, Expressen posted a short interview with Johan Franzen where he backed up Chelios’s story about Babcock.
As quoted in Expressen, and as you can hear above, Chelios said:
It got to the point with poor Johan, no one really knowing that he was suffering with the concussion thing and the depression thing, he just broke down.
