Mike Babcock expected to be cleared to coach in NHL again after completion of league investigation into past conduct (report)

According to hockey insider Chris Johnston, people close to the situation believe former NHL coach Mike Babcock will be cleared to return to coaching once the league's investigation into his past conduct is complete. The investigation stems from Babcock's time with the Columbus Blue Jackets and had been a potential obstacle to him being hired by the Edmonton Oilers. Johnston cautioned that no final decision has been made, stressing that he was relaying the opinions of his sources rather than confirmed outcomes.
