Detroit Red Wings coach Mike Babcock has left Buffalo after spending the afternoon meeting with Sabres owner Terry Pegula regarding the team's coaching vacancy.
According to Nick Kypreos of SportsNet, Babcock met with the Toronto Maple Leafs over the weekend to discuss their open head coach position.
Detroit held exclusive negotiating rights with Babcock through June, but Holland said he and Babcock will not let the process drag out.
"We're only going to get better," Holland said. "One of the ways we're going to get better is our players are going to compete."
"The worst day I've had in coaching in Detroit, period, in my 10 years here, was yesterday, bar none," Babcock added.
"We've been drafting good and developing good, but we've been winning too much," Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock said. "That's the facts."
The Tampa Bay Lightning are moving on in the NHL playoffs. The Detroit Red Wings are headed home.
Zidlicky has seven goals and 27 assists this season, including three goals and eight assists in his 21 games for Detroit.
"Scoring first is always a plus," Babcock said after Game 6 on Monday. "It just seems to get you more relaxed and under control."
As a result of the suspension, the Red Wings are approaching their most important game of the season to date without their best defenseman.
We're through 4 games of all of the 1st round series, let's take a look at some of the top plays so far.
"It's the playoffs," Babcock said . "In the series except for Game 2 and Game, this was 6 tonight, there was no space, period."
"We went down [to Tampa] and played a really solid game," Kronwall said after the Game 6 loss. "That's what we've got to do again."
Tyler Johnson and Jason Garrison scored in the first period, and Johnson added another goal in the second to give the Lightning a 3-0 lead.
Pronovost, a native of Lac la Tortue, Quebec, made his debut for the Red Wings in the 1949-50 playoffs. He soon became a fixture on the Detroit blue line.
The Red Wings have handled the higher level of physicality better than the Lightning, and Tampa Bay needs to match that grit to score.
"The old saying is, 'If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying,'" Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said. "They do it to a 'T.'"
Petr Mrazek stopped 28 shots and the Detroit Red Wings rebounded from a disappointing loss to shut down the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-0 on Saturday night and take a 3-2 series lead.
Stephen Curry wasn't about to turn down the music, or put any kind of damper on a giddy locker room celebration that seemed more reminiscent of a series-clinching triumph.
Mike Babcock does not usually address his team after games. The Detroit Red Wings head coach deviated from that norm Thursday night.
The Red Wings led 2-0 in the third period before Johnson scored with 5:26 remaining. He then assisted on Ondrej Palat's tying goal 77 seconds later.
Joakim Andersson's shot bounced routinely off Bishop and up in the air, but when Bishop tried to bat the puck away with his stick, he instead accidentally knocked it back off the crossbar.
The home crowd, of course, loved Abdelkader's defense of his teammate, and proud chants of "Abby! Abby! Abby! Abby!" filled the arena.
Petr Mrazek made 22 saves for his first postseason shutout.
Mrazek does not deny that there is pressure to perform, but if it bothers him, he is not admitting it.
