Babcock resigns from Blue Jackets after allegations of improperly requesting players' personal photos

Mike Babcock resigned as Columbus Blue Jackets head coach amid an NHLPA investigation into his requests to view players' personal cellphone photos.
Babcock asked team captain Boone Jenner to share photos, claiming it was a team-building exercise, but some players felt uncomfortable.
Former player Paul Bissonnette first revealed the allegations on a podcast, sparking the NHLPA inquiry.
The Blue Jackets promoted associate coach Pascal Vincent to replace Babcock just before the season started.
Questions remain about what Columbus management knew of Babcock's past conduct issues before hiring him.
