GARTH'S CORNER: Babcocked

Pegulas private jet is in Buffalo. This seems odd that his plane is here and him supposedly at NFL owners meetings. Something is up I am being told. Well placed employee saying Bylsma?

They never really wanted Babcock, right Garth?

Wow lose the lottery and now lose out on Babcock

I hope you're okay, GARTH. You're too talented of a writer to let this effect you.

Babcock's Theme!

This should heat up the old QEW rivalry. Just another reason to hate those pretentious Leaf fans.

They act like they invented hockey. Hmm, the last time the Leafs were in the Finals was 1967. Good luck with that Babs. Can't wait for his first meltdown with the media in TO.

I can hear the chants now... SIX-TEE-SEV-UNH (clap, clap...clap, clap, clap).

So Garth, the next coach of the Buffalo Sabres is _________________.

This is really dumb for the Leafs, terrible hiring NOW. They need to tank, hit rock bottom and get some prime talent in the draft. They are going to maintain their mediocrity with Babcock and never do the full rebuild. You are (frank)ed.

Full rebuild isn't guaranteed to work

And the Babcock blog counter stops at _____?

Wait, I thought the Pegulas always got their man? You mean Garth was wrong on something?

did the last few things in Buffalo not on fire suddenly go up in flames?

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

They wanted Guy Boucher all along.

No Babcock, No McDavid
