No, Babs is perfect according to some of you guys. Guy won 1 cup 10 years ago and he is God.
Who said he was perfect? That's the first thing everyone says when they see someone stick up for Babcock. Maybe it's time to put some blame on the players not getting the job done. Look at that talent that they have, that's on them.

Don’t forget about his gold medals with stacked Team Canada rosters!! Teams that literally didn’t even need a coach to be good.

Love how he turned a group of super elites into grinders during the 2014 winter games. Yes Canada won the gold but man all of their games that year were awful to watch.

It was bad to watch, but they dominated.

Speaking of changes..the only one he made last year would be to have brown replace Nylander..
Any bets?

Hey, at least hes won 1 out of his last 8 playoff series!

We lost to WSH fair and square. It was a good series. We lost to Boston because Smith and Babcock not managing the team correctly. Matthews must not have liked it either. Boston was beatable.

Goat isn't good enough come playoff time. He's had some good shifts and cycles and games, and plays hard...but he's not good enough. Lindholm's play has declined lately, though, and Brown's been bad almost all year.

I was a Brown fan the last two years, so don't think of me as someone who just has a hate on for him. I'm also a Hyman fan.

This Leafs team lacks killer instinct, they continually fail to start on time and they continually fail to beat teams they should beat.

Countless horrendous coaching decisions too. If this continues changes need to be made, period.

I don't understand how they can play so well against the best team in the league and then put this type of performance on.


Florida tries to make the game ugly, and hope for turnovers to get goals on. its usually bad coaches or teams lacking in skill that play this system, Tampa doesn't play that way... 95% of posters won't understand this, hopefully, you can

Not gonna bother watching 3rd. Florida has a better team.

This team is a bunch of soft pansies and the 2nd half of the season is gonna get worse.

Meanwhile Bracco, Moore and Grundstrom are ripping up the ahl and you have plugs like brown, lindholm and ennis taking up roster spots

This team certainly doesn't look like they are competing...something is wrong here..
Of course,that has nothing to do with the coach.

Why not just say that they trap?

Canada Sochi 2014 could have been a machine offensively, Babcock though prefers to win games 2-1 rather than 5-1 so it’s no surprise.

Can we scratch Matthews and Nylander? we had a good team

More proof that they really should be looking to trade one of M&M to REALLY acquire what we need, and REALLY prepare for a cap crunch. Considering the injuries, just deal Matthews, who cares. look at what else we got. imagine the return, too. Dubas is a numbers guy, he'll come around to it within a year.
