I can't believe we're gonna be hearing Babcock pressers for the next 2 years (at least), so stoked.
- TheMussel

Sadly, the pressers will probably be the best thing you see from the Leafs for the next 2 years (at least)...

Yup...Dion's staying.
- MCharisma91

That's what you got from what he said? really?

wow... killer burn
- Brandon

Wow... awesome come back

This press conference is giving me a boner.
- BetterCallSaul

Both Shanny and Babcock believing that the first few years will be tough, lead me to believe big roster changes are coming soon....

Need more Buffalo media questions.

The funny thing is, the Toronto media would never challenge Babcock if the roles were reversed. They'd support his decision.

Buffalo media are big homers.

My Babcock has a Shanaboner after listening to that presser...

Boy, I bet @BNHarrington was a real peach in high school whenever he got dumped

Error divide by zero

He says he wants men, and gos on to call Dion a kid

The tail end of his answer was better - wouldn't be fair to talk about players right now, because he has only evaluated them from afar.

Says absolutely nothing, but in a polite way.
- Atomic Wedgie

Pretty much an expected answer and for once, I actually think it is an honest and appropriate answer.

Trying to set expectations...

I like Babcock saying they need to get picks for hunter to work with.


That seems to point to the plan being executed, rather than changed and sped up because of this.

They'll make a movie one day about Babcock.. And the 5 cups he brought to Toronto

When it appeared Babcock was not coming to Toronto, I never heard any criticism of him from the media.

Babcock never signed a contract with Buffalo. If they all went crazy believing it was a done deal then they should be upset at their own stupidity.

More than 20 of the potential live liver donors for Eugene Melnyk have decided to move forward as donors for someone else. #BeADonor

Shanny:

We were never out, but we were glad other thought we were out.

Things are finally gonna be done the right way..

Brady asking about Dion.

Babcock"im a fan of Dion, he's a good kid. He tries hard. I'll get to know him, and he'll get to know me"

I hate Babcock now.

Bottom line, it was ignorance to discount the Leafs so much. There was no reason for all the media to say they had no shot.

Don't read too much into it. I thought his line about not knowing the players was a weak excuse.

Really glad to hear this...I hope the media that thought this was somehow offside acknowledge the good that comes from a public figure put in this situation going public.

I like Babcock again.
