Yikes!
Babcock has to learn to ease up on some players
Goes to show you how weak the goaltending depth is right now

What a shit storm.

Here is a novel idea they could try being defensively responsible and their own zone.

They should have a defensive player of the game award

Transcript from yesterdays post practice meeting:

Babcock: Sparks you got a concussion

Sparks: I do?

Babcock: Yes you do.

Sparks: When did that happen?

Babcock: It's even more serious than we thought, you cant even remember when it happened! Maybe you should take the rest of the season off!

I love my Leafs but man they do some Big Lou shady stuff with the injury rules.

Oddly enough my first thought was that Sparks was going to be pushed aside a little bit to allow him to gather himself without media attention.

I think it's a thing that happens more than we know.

Haven't read up on it...but my first thought on the Rask situation was something similar.

Good thing the Leafs have a bit of a buffer over Boston/Buffalo in the standings.

Just get Andy healthy for the long term

Never want to see someone hurt but pretty happy to not have to watch Sparks flop around this afternoon.

I've had two concussions and its like a bad back, you are never really 100% ever again, the last time I got knocked out was in 1986 and I still get brain fog at random times, for no reason. I sure hope it is not serious for Sparks, hope he returns to 100% real soon..

Hopefully Hutch will find his 2015 form again. But he looked quite bad in the last Marlies game I watched.
