Tony Babcock's return to hockey seems to have paid off.
Babcock, the alter ego of Thomas Middleditch, is a die-hard hockey fanatic and insider who spent over seven months as a PeeWee equipment coach for the Surrey Thunder A2.
Though his broadcasting career was well-respected, it was also short lived, spanning for only one game. He filled in for his father, a longtime announcer, who was sidelined by a freak press meal. Throughout the hockey community, it's rumored that undercooked salmon was the culprit.
However, Babcock was given a second chance this past season when the LA Kings hosted the Edmonton Oilers on
Hockey Night in LA
. And, now, Middleditch revealed to Conan O'Brien that Babcock isn't done quite yet.
