Babcock has agreed to terms and will become the next coach of the Detroit Red Wings, team spokesman John Hahn said Thursday, July 14, 2005. Babcock, who rejected an offer to remain coach of the Mighty Ducks, replaces Dave Lewis, whose contract was not renewed. (AP Photo/Paul Chiasson, File)DETROIT (AP) - Mike Babcock slipped on a Detroit cap and officially kicked off a new era in Hockeytown. The Red Wings introduced their new coach Friday during a news conference at Joe Louis Arena, and Babcock said he was looking forward to building on the Motor City's winning tradition.

"I believe in leadership," he said. "I believe in being the best in the world at what I do."

Babcock, who led the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim to within a game of a Stanley Cup title two years ago, agreed to terms a day earlier and replaces Dave Lewis during a time of transition for both the NHL and the Red Wings.
