Thought it would be neat to track the 'Babcock Segments' (herein known as The BS). I will update this post as each segment is completed.

[WilliamNylander]

Only 3 points to make up...Not bad at all. Thought it would be worse.

 

[wingman75]

Only 2 points off track, and in half of the 8 completed segments the goal has been met including the last three in a row!

 

[On-the-Fly]

Nice idea. Format sucks.

Nice idea. Format sucks.

I am working on learning how to do the tables and better formatting. Once I do I will change it.

2 points off. Go Leafs Go.

 

[HellasLEAF]

I wonder how many more points a team gets per year just having Babcock as their coach.

He makes so many good decisions in every area and is a great motivator. You can see why he is first choice for Team Canada.

 

[Rogie]

This seems to be a good idea - breaking the shed into 5 game segments.

I mean, if you are preachin to your team that each game is a MUST win, that's no good because after you lose a few (and every team does), you lose a credibility then if you say it again, we have to win 2 of the next 3 - or whatever. Saying you MUST WIN or have to win, isn't a good motivator when players know full well anyways, that, no matter where you are in the standings, you have to TRY to win the next game, but, it's never DO OR DIE actually, well, unless, it's mathematically a do or die, like at the end of the season and it's the last game, and it's literally mathematically the case where you have to win. Course, at that point, it doesn't need saying either.

If you preach any kind of parlay system or we've got to win 2 of the next 3 games to make the playoffs, well, it's the same kind of slippery slope.

With this 5 game segment thingy (don't know if they have a chart on the wall in their dressing room or not, but they might), it's got enough flexibility into it, that whether you win ONE game or not, it's not deflating but if you've won 2 or 3 and have collected points in the segment, it's very motivating to want to gain more points and you can feel like you can bank them.

At the same time, if you aren't keeping pace in the segment, players know, it's only ONE segment of 5 games and there are more segments to make it up.

Except when you get down to the last few segments, then, it might be better if it's presented differently - or maybe not??

On the other hand, players have basically ALL this in their heads and minds anyways and it doesn't really have to be said or presented in charts. lol

I assume they roll like Major League and have a life size cutout of Lou in the dressing room at all times. Each point results in a piece coming off revealing... well... maybe Margaret Whitton was a better idea

Totally agree with you though. What better way to keep a team motivated over a full season.

Tonight's game is the last game of this segment. we have 5 points coming in. So, we need at least one point. This was a tough segment.

I like tracking progress with these segments. If we average 6 points in each of the full 16 segments, that means we will have 96 points, enough to put us in the playoffs.

 

[White Shadow]

Only 1 back!

 

[wingman75]

Only 1 back!

Yup. And 4 segments in a row with at least 6pts.

Next segment is going to be tough, all on the road!

Just need another 7 points in this segment to get us on track. Don't forget also that the final 2 games of the season are "bonus" games. Hopefully we don't need them!

Yep, but all teams below us in the standings.

 

[wingman75]

Yep, but all teams below us in the standings.

It's weird that you are saying that and it's true lol

Still, road games and at least 1 back to back. Not easy. Remember we lost to ARI and COL in the same week at home

 

[willmma]

We've split the first two games of this segment. we need 4 points out the next 3 games. GO LEAFS!

 

[PromisedLand]

Thanks wingman75. This is brilliant. Keep it up man...

 

[wingman75]

New segment starts tonight. 3 points off the pace.

 

[PromisedLand]

thanks wingman. this is great!

 

[willmma]

We need 2 but can potentially get 4. Getting 4 against here would make up for last segment.

 

[REGGIE DUNLOP77]

Great idea OP ,thanks for taking the time to update,,

Not sure the criteria for a sticky but this should be considered
