Columbus Blue Jackets head coach Mike Babcock has responded to allegations from a hockey podcast that he asked team captain Boone Jenner to see his phone and displayed Jenner’s personal photos on his office television.
“While meeting with our players and staff I asked them to share, off their phones, family pictures as part of the process of getting to know them better, Babcock said in a statement released by the Blue Jackets on Tuesday."There was absolutely nothing more to it than that.
"I thought it was a great first meeting and good way for us to start to build a relationship. To have this blown out of proportion is truly disappointing.”
