if Babs is still the coach he'll be in the Leaf's pressbox.
Plenty of valid reasons to criticize Babcock but this isn't one of them IMO.
Every player he's sat in the pressbox wasn't much to begin with besides maybe Leivo.
There was big drama surrounding that guy we picked up from Vancouver. He's so bad that I forgot his name and he's likely in the AHL. Holl isn't that good either and that is the reason why he sits often.
If Sandin and Liljegren are ready, they will play, just like Dermott played. We'll need the cheap ELC players to play well and I've no doubt Sandin and Liljegren are better than some guys on our D right now already.
What sucks are the contracts of Zaitsev and Marleau. Hope there is a way to get rid of at least one if not both this offseason.
Edit: Frank Corrado. That guy.
