Fans in Toronto are praying for Babcock........to go to the Sabres. We don't need a savior to take us to 10th place. We need more top 5 picks.

I agree, I could see Babcock to Toronto ending poorly. Toronto is caught in a vicious cycle of running GM's and coaches out of town. The reason the gm's and coaches aren't succeeding is they are saddled with the previous guys bad choices. Similar to the Bills the last 12-13 years.

His tweet after that was:


@BNHarrington source says Babcock only comes to Buffalo if they have end of season press conferences


I think/hope he's kidding.

There's no way that give him $10 million a year. They would be the laughing stock of the league.

then if the 50 million rumor is correct, they must want him as coach until he dies

Just spoke with Mike Babcock: ``I hope to make a decision by morning, but I’m still very much undecided.''

"Signing bonus" is a G6.

I hope we get Babcock so Hardhat can come in here and trash him.
