If Johansen has a half a brain he'll avoid this mess and sign with a team like CGY or ANA.

8 year 50 mil Babcock as per Dreger

It is like monopoly, the way they throw around the money.

Man this move by Corey Perry last night was hilarious.

They act like they just won the cup. Unless he puts pucks in the net it was a crazy signing

Will it doesn't affect the cap so all the power to them.

The coach of Toronto will make more than any GM in the league next year. Nothing wrong with that

Anyone ask Scooby what his thoughts were on the Bachelorette last night? Did they pick the right girl

I heard on the radio that she's already slept with one of the dude's trying to win her heart in this show?

It's the leafs, they will do what they want to do. Someone on the leaf thread the other day said he was "waiting for Shanahan to do his magic". I didn't realize that suspending players some how gives him management experience.

Now I'm waiting for Shanahan to suspend Babcock.

It must be like a fairy tale world. Shanny jumps in the private jet with a huge bag o money to pick up Babs and whisk him off his feet. Any thing you want, tacos, ice cream, nothing too extravagant for ya.

And then sports teams want tax breaks and funding for new arenas..

Doing his magic is throwing money at the problem.

Stressed out, don't know what to do? let's go shopping.

The only good thing to come out of Toronto is an empty bus.

They live in their own reality.

I still need to be told why a team that is emptying most assets and starting all over needs an 8 million dollar coach.

They might be competitive by the time his contract ends.

The leafs fans here in Toronto are even more pathetic then the trolls that go on HB.
I had a coworker come and tell me that leafs hired Babcok for 8yrs 50 Mil.
I said OK.
And then he said we will for sure win the cup.
So I said you think so?
His response well Babcock wants to win the cup and leafs gave him the best shot.
My response was Buffalo would have given him a way better shot and in a shorter time frame.
He responded with Buffalo? Are the leafs really worse then Buffalo? We have a better team, better prospects, top goalie, Norris caliber dman, top scorer and now the best coach in NHL, how is Bufffalo better?
.....my response. I told him atleast Buffalo made to the SCF in his lifetime. Apparently now I am a leafs hater and the talk of the office.
