I don't get why Dubas didn't sign Marner to an 8 year 7 million dollar deal before the season started. He's obviously lost his chance.

Dubas got his on the job training from Lou. And what did Lou always say? If you have time, use it.

So I'm all about temperance and avoiding knee-jerk reactions, it's just not as much fun for internet discussions.

That being said, I need to point out that while they have had two consecutive seasons that were each individually a huge improvement over the first season babcock coached, this season is not a significant improvement over last year, especially considering how much the team is supposed to have improved from a roster standpoint.

- TheMussel

I agree this year is not a substantial improvement but it has definitely been a slight improvement ..esp 5v5..

Keefe is Dubas' guy, right?

I wouldn't be surprised if after next year Keefe is named the new head coach. (Unless, the Leafs win the Cup this year or next.. )

For all we know, Babs and Dubas might already be in a disagreement. Picking up Nic Petan doesn't appear to be a "Babcock" move
- PatC80


Lindholm was garbage, so if Babs is sour towards Dubas for that trade, I dont even know what to say.. but smh and laugh.

Especially since Andersen is a lock for the Vezina. Confusing.

I think you have to Give Dubas more time to improve the D, and some of that has to come from developing prospects. Sandin looks like a gem at this point

this dude does NHLe stuff

It also looks like the Leafs went a couple seasons under hunter drafting...no so great?
outside the 1st, things look awful ...esp the D

2015 and 2018 look a bit better, which Dubas was moreso involved? just assumptions. esp on 2015

At least our Dmen don't score goals on their own net anymore, so I guess that's an improvement

It's very sad, It really sucks to see the Sabres ahead of the Leafs in the standings. Oh well

Sadly Sparks is better then all the Sabres goaltenders.

So is Babs gonna roll with Sparks in the playoffs? Hes been known to nail stars to the bench in the postseason if their game goes to hell.

Well find out when we play the Sabres in the playoffs....truthfully the Leafs could probably have no goalie and still sweep the Sabres and ECHL
