Better question: Will Babcock coach in the NHL again, or is he done?

Yes, absolute correct move. Now Babcock can get a job with another organization and win.

Hey EK, where do you think the Leafs would be if they had kept Lou as their GM and not the wunderkind ...? They have this year to win the Cup because they are even further into cap hell next year with only 1 D man signed, no significant move up in cap dollars available, and lots of spaces to fill...plus not enough anyones in the Marlies to bring up to fill holes at ELC prices...start buttering their foreheads because they are going to be toast

Hyman was fifth for forwards in ice time in his return from injury, but don’t let facts get in your way James, you never do!

It will be interesting.

I always felt Babcock was getting the most out of a weaker team personally.

Their roster is pure offense and no defense. Babcock forcing responsibility down the throats of the team was a net positive.

Wonder if the new coach will try something to optimize the offense more or just be a fresh voice for attention to detail defensively.

He had the third most minutes for forwards actually. But regardless, Tanner can’t even fact check his own facts. But if he isn’t wrong about something we’d have nothing to talk about because his actual opinions are garbage.

Yes. Now Dubas has a coach who won’t actively undermine him, and one the players will like and listen to.

You almost had to, at this point.

Now, it's on the players to perform... and to see if Dubas' grand plan comes together.

No more fall guy.
