Playing for Mike Babcock also means vomiting from anxiety: Frankie Corrado’s experience

The name Mike Babcock continues to polarize the hockey world. The former coach, who had a fine reputation before arriving in Toronto, quickly became the face of coaches who intimidate players.

The story of “Mitch Marner’s list” when Marner arrived in Toronto, when the coach had him make a list to rank his teammates’ effort and it was publicly revealed, is a good example.

We can also add his lack of class towards many players.

All this to say that the coach, even if he saw the doors to the NHL close when his tenure in Columbus came to an abrupt end in recent months, has a bad reputation.

And that’s despite the fact that many people in the business talk to him behind closed doors.

Because it feels like he’s not coming back, it’s easier to stand up and denounce the hockey man’s behavior. That’s what many people do anonymously.

But it’s also what Frankie Corrado wasn’t afraid to do by naming himself. In a paper published on The Athletic website, the former Maple Leafs player shared his experience.
