Ansar Khan of Mlive.com believes that the possibility of Mike Babcock returning as the head coach of the Red Wings next season is now more likely than ever. According to his sources inside the Red Wings organization, the team is "growing more confident that Babcock will sign an extension with the club, either during the season or shortly after." This is huge news for the Red Wings faithful, as it appeared that Babcock may have been on his way out to a market like Toronto or Pittsburgh where his demands were more likely to be met. According to Khan the Red Wings are now "willing to make him the highest-paid coach in the NHL with a four- or five-year extension worth around $3 million per season." Combine that with the teams excellent performance this season, and a wealth of young talent within the organization already, and the Red Wings may be an offer that is too good to refuse for coach Babcock.
