...... so you don't want Babcock here? i'm not getting your gripe.

I really don't care who is here as long as there are results.

He hasnt shown he is any better than Horachek, and definitely not better than Carlyle in his time here.

Its been 10+ games of crap hockey with no improvement. We will see how he improves through the season.

This not true.

In the calendar year of 2015, it is.

Last season in Florida (only because we literally broke both of their goalies and the gaolie coach almost had to come in and they had to leave a groinless Montoya in to get killed before Luongo got out of street clothes to come back in) and this season in Columbus (because Bobrovsky is horrible).

Improvement on what? The record is not on Babcock at all.

If your expecting a much much better record, we'll than you will likely wait a long time

I'd be pretty shocked if Lupul is still a Leaf at the end of the season.

We're about to lose 80% of the female Leafs fans I know.

How about those backups that played for Buffalo last year?

They've sucked balls, what's your point? Neuvirth had a good stretch of games that inflated his stats, Enroth is a crap ton worse than Reimer, nevermind Bernier.

Plus you can't blame Babs for Bozak

It's all desperate measures to raise his value up

Babcock has the same results and getting 50 million to do it.

The thing about that 50 million is, he's getting it over 8 years. It not just for this year. Are you seriously that upset that this team isn't winning? Look at players like Grabner, Boyes, Parenteau etc. They'll be gone by next year, along with many others. Don't get hung up on this team. I haven't read the whole correspondence but are you really this upset?

Bozak must be wanting to switch benches tonight. He looks lost out there without Kessel or JVR. What a difference in play.

There are many improvements but you won't be seeing many wins, so if you want to check out for the season, you should do that.

Even strength play is surprisingly well, possession statistics are good, and effort is there nearly every game.

This is a team designed to suck. If you want to have a team capable of contending for the Cup for 5-7 yeas, you're going to have to watch this team suck for the next 2-3 years.

Scotty Bowman couldn't turn around this roster. And its by design.

Babcock is billion times better than Hora or Carlyle. There's soooo much more than results in this Rebuild people spell it out Loud r-e-b-u-i-l-d

And have them get **** on for 82 games?

I don't buy that at all.

One of the most important pieces(Rielly) of this rebuild is currently "getting **** on"; he'll be fine and so would they.

I mentioned it last night in the PGT - 2 goals between PAP, Matthias, Boyes, Grabner and Arcobello. If that bunch aren't going to produce to the point where they're some what valuable come the deadline then they really aren't of great use to us and we may as well see a younger player instead. I'm not asking for Nylander or Kapanen(the two youngest), but Soshnikov, Leivo, even bring Panik back.

This season was a write off in the beginning and a lot knew that

This is a year where you just get through

Babs had very little talent to work with, it will get better with more talent

so this new guy isn't touching the Leafs at all, and Shanahan reports directly to the board. that's great.

If we keep playing with hard work and possession
This team will be awesome when talent comes

Pretty awesome having a great coach since like Quinn

Who cares what's on paper. We're talking about results and what's in front of us.

Andersen has 0 wins so far this year and hasn't been a sieve. Bernier has been the total opposite.
Leafs are obviously a bottom 5 team, Anahiem is not. Even then I was talking about teams who are in bottom 5, in an 82 game sample, in general.

We all knew this season was going to be painful. No one can really be shocked. We are a team that will work hard, but struggle to score goals. We don't have the depth to carry us. No real surprise.
