Really glad to hear this...I hope the media that thought this was somehow offside acknowledge the good that comes from a public figure put in this situation going public.

Absolutely. In situations like this, the exposure is great

Have we not seen this optimism and enthusiasm on here when Burke was hired?

I guess having cautious 'wait and see' attitude (especially considering recent history) is overrated and not for leaf fans.

I was troubled by him using his "Celebrity" to get ahead of the line. Sorry he is ill, but he should not be deemed more important than others who need a liver.

More than 20 of the potential live liver donors for Eugene Melnyk have decided to move forward as donors for someone else. #BeADonor

We also saw the same "Dream on Leaf fans, Burke Will Never Leave Anaheim".

He's no Willie Desjardins, but I think it's still worthy of some optimism given the recent state of affairs.

Something tells me Shanny, Hunter, and Dubas won't be moving out 2 1st rounders and a 2nd for a scoring winger.

They know the team is terribad right now.

Of course, but I think now that the "Shanaplan" is a more long-term vision of growing a sustainably good hockey team. Less bluster and posturing, more saying the right thing and following through.

Burke: "I was born impatient, and that's not going to change"

Shanahan "This is a long-term process, and this doesn't change that"

Well... I never said in a row.. But that would be nice.

Anything less than a dynasty like the Islanders or Oilers would be deemed a failure. I didn't say the Habs because they (frank)ing cheated.

Why give up that much when we could just wring out the pants Stee was wearing today when he heard Babcock drives an F150?

That's fair, but money talks in every area of life...at least (hopefully) something good will come of it for those not in his financial position....I secretly hope it's a Leaf fan that has been denied tickets in Ottawa previously

Otherwise, eat a Richard

Some optimism is fine. What I'm seeing on here is just plain old lunacy.

Recent state of affairs showed that multiple coaches could not get this group of players to perform. I don't think babcock has some magic spell to fix this mess. Going to take time and a whole lot of work to make this better. No one person has that great of an effect. It's up to the whole management team to step up.
