Mike Commodore Takes Hilarious Shot at Former Coach
Mike Commodore has become a gem in the content sector since his retirement, and his antics have been legend since his rise through the NHL ranks. Also legend is Commodore's absolute, untethered hatred for retired head coach Mike Babcock. Like several former NHLers, Commodore has spoken publicly about Babcock's methods of coaching, and he has never minced words on the subject.
Over the years, Commodore has appeared on dozens of podcasts, radio shows, etc. and has offered detailed criticisms of Babcock. He told Spittin' Chiclets had initially buried him in the AHL when he first arrived in Anaheim, near the beginning of Babcock's coaching career. The rest, as they say, is history.
A fan recently approached Commodore, asking him for an autograph, and he did not disappoint. He gave the fan an autograph he will remember forever:
A humble '#F---Babs' to make this fan's day.
Babcock recently announced his retirement, which might have been cause for celebration in the Commodore household. I just love that Commodore takes any chance he can to dig at Babcock. Rather than being the bigger man, quietly enjoying Babs' retirement, Commodore just dances on his nemesis' coaching grave for the entire internet to see. Just fantastic content.
