Marc Crawford was one of three remaining candidates for the Position of head coach of the ZSC Lions. The Swede Rikard Grönborg was ultimately. The Zurich do not have to regret your choice. They are top of the League and play attractive ice hockey .
Would you be in favour of a return Crawfords, would also have been recorded of the abuse wave, which is since a few days, in North America rages on. The 58-Year-old is faced with serious allegations, and was suspended as an assistant to Chicago’s provisional. In addition, an investigation was initiated.
the Puck into The roles of Crawford’s Ex-player Sean Avery, who said at the weekend compared to the “New York Post” claimed that he had been maltreated by this in Los Angeles. It occurred in December 2006, in Crawford’s first season with the Kings. Avery caused a penalty for too many players on the ice, which led to a goal on him with a Coach on the bench stepped so firmly in the back that this is apparently the bruises left behind.

Avery had expressed in the context of the affair to calgary’s head coach Bill Peters, who resigned on Friday, after it became known that he humiliated the players, racist insults and physically attacked.
Avery unleashed his narrative but something, which he had not intended. Via Social media he wrote to the suspension of Crawford’s on Twitter: “It was within his rights to kick me in the butt. He would be able to do even harder. I deserved it. I loved Crow. He is my second favorite NHL Coach.” But by then it was already too late. And because other players had complained about Crawford’s rough handling, it’s not good for him.
I talked about his physical abuse in my book 4 years ago kicking me and others on the bench. Verbal abuse included homophobic slurs on a regular basis. I look forward to participating in your investigation. https://t.co/Grl8brdTan

So the Swede Johan Franzén said to the Swedish “Expressen”, Babcock had humiliated him in Detroit, verbally, that he was still having nightmares. Although he was very well prepared, “but he is a terrible person. He was able to immerse people for a reason together. Also the cleaning staff in the hall.”
The wave of allegations is likely to be unstoppable. And she is already spilling out in Switzerland is over. The 2018 retired striker Chris Rivera wrote on Twitter, the stories about Babcock would remind him of Chris McSorley, his Ex-Coach in Geneva: “He has trained me, but he has destroyed me also. As a player and as a person.” Harsh Words.
The time of the Coaches of the old school past it is probably slow. For those who come seems to be for accounts of the players with their Ex-coaches.
