Good thing he took a front-loaded deal. Considering he'll be fired by year 3.

Sources say Mike Babcock has been hired by the Maple Leafs. Mammoth 8 yr contract believed to be around $50 million.

Iggy was right all along, Babcock would never come to Toronto..

With all due respect though. How come he is allowed to come in here day after day, beat his chest about his precious Oil, berate everything Leafs, piss off everyone, and get away with it?

Moment me or anyone else make a humourous post, it's bantime. I don't get it. Does he have some kind of dirt on us?

- T.Fleury

I have talked with Iggy in PM's and he knows not to cross the line here, I have not seen him do that. Let us worry about it Steve.

Nope, I don't think he'd have come here without the expectation that he gets time.

babcock is awesome...won't change the standings for the next few years, but a long term system will be in place. excited that he makes that much actually, it means he'll have the hammer and be able to overthrow guys like kessel if he has to (they make the same amount for god sakes).

that's a culture change if there was one

on a side note, watch that 3rd rounder turn out to be the next sidney crosby

Oh Jeezuz, it's brilliant.

Coach: Shut your yap and do what I say!

Young Buck: Do you know how much I make, old man?

Coach: Yes, punk, and it isn't as much as me! Now do 20 laps!

- Atomic Wedgie


I guess one way to make sure the inmates have the proper attitude is to make sure they know that the they are easier and cheaper to replace than the coach.

I seriously wonder if this is not part of the thinking here.

Oh?

Show me where I said that? I said they weren't the favorite. But never said he wouldn't go there.

Typical pat.
