Its not really Babs fault, he has no other options... its on Dubs, this is his defense core.
- Hockey_Reverend

Agreed that he has to play the players he's given, but would it hurt to experiment a little? Again, maybe Dermott might be a top 4 capable player? I don't think Holl is suddenly anything more than a 6/7 either, but what's that definition of insanity again? We know what Ceci is at this point, over his head.

the only thing ceci does on at least an average level is keeping the puck in on the attack. if he has decent possession numbers it'll solely be because even a literal garbage can could get the puck to rielly and let him do all the work with the breakout
- daeth

Not sure if I prefer Zaitsev trying to block shots/blocking guys out but not doing well at it or Ceci just starring at people confused.

Dubas to the media and fans: "Calm the fack down. Its November. Corsi believes we'll be ok....therefore....I believe we will be ok. Hail Corsi and zone entries, have a good day".

Dubas leaves presser.

Well (frank) me, we're going to re-up Ceci aren't we?

We need to start declining penalties. I can't believe how bad we are on the powerplay

he understands how important it is to have a scapegoat

Is this even a debate?
- DrunkenCanuck

it shouldnt be, NZ has been poop in Ottawa

I would rather have Zaitsev then Ceci. There, I said it... even locked in for those years...
- Hockey_Reverend

No way.
A few more months of ceci and the leafs have 4.5m of open cap space.

Ceci hasnt been that horrible....the same kind of horrible leaf fans should be use by now. Its been a decade of horrible D.

But it’s somehow all Dubas’ fault...

I didn't backread, did the NYI trolls show up? Bunch of tools those guys

Can you imagine? Or a babcock extension

- daeth

Think that's part of the reason he's still got Babcock. He needs to sort this salary situation out before firing Babcock and bringing in his own coach otherwise he won't last long.

- senstroll

The advanced stats says he's been a tire fire, but watching 6 Ott games, he's been mediocre to fine. He's bailed Chabot out a lot who looks very different since that injury he had last season when he was basically a PPG defender. Hasn't looked as sharp, still good, but not great.

exactly what I was thinking after the game last night

Can you imagine? Or a babcock extension
- bryant

I remember when that happened.

ron wilson got like a 5 year extension, during a losing streak when we were near the bottom of the league

Think Arizona are the only other team that's believes so heavily in not watching games.

Ceci for Raanta

All part of the plan.
Wasnt it a two year extension?
