Age of Babs begins!

Is he a number one center?

 

[Pikma]

I can't pull my self away from the Witcher, so much to do.

It's a never ending loop of "alright, time to continue the main quest... oh look an exclamation mark!"

[SCHUEY F1]

I only played an hour of the Witcher. Life is Strange is taking top priority, but I should be done soon. Also having fun with Neverwinter.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Enough Babs talk, let's focus on Babs V2

I hope

Guy does sound a lot like Babs though, it's scary.

 

[Red_Man]

Take a picture of Babcock today, and one 5 years from now and see how much he's aged. It'll be like the before and after from before Presidents take office.

 

[Ricker]

Canada's team...? really ? ...really Babcock

Good luck with the Leafs though. =)

A little jealous that we didn't get Blashill, he's probably going to be the next great coach.

Fair play to the Wings though, they're the best run organization in the league, they get to reap their own rewards.

The Shanaplans are essentially turn the Leafs into Wings 2.0, maybe if we're lucky it can actually happen.

 

[zroid]

I take back every good thing I've ever said about the Detroit Red Wings organization.

[Kuro Madoushi]

I can't believe how big of a deal everyone is making of this.

He's a good coach.. not Wayne Gretzky.

Toronto going full Toronto.

Please. If they did the same thing for McJesus coming to Toronto, they'd be people ripping this too.

Detroit was Canada's team until yesterday

 

[shadowkat]

Bro-hug buddy. I hate the Habs but I've waited my entire life to see a Habs/Leafs playoff series, hopefully it's a reality in a few years.

We were so close that one year. :'(

oh my god, the team challenge in episode 14 of MCA is ingenious

Dem's Leafs salt is playing out like a Scumbag Steve meme. The franchise jealousy is real.

Says he doesn't hate the Leafs/doesn't care.

Actually does.

So I guess you didn't like that little interview with Babcock huh?

Hahaha

It was fine, it was actually substantive, better than the ball washing they spent half the show on yesterday.

But how can he not care if he doesn't tell me that he doesn't care enough to tell me he doesn't care enough?

Protip : don't believe anything you read that doesn't come from McKenzie, Lavoie or LeBrun.

Yeah, the only interesting news coming from the original source is that apparently Plekanec sold his restaurant.

If Lavoie doesn't report it, I don't believe it, especially if it originates from Montreal. These are random,nobody blogs looking for hits with these Pleks trades.

Hey I totally trust this random guy has a source inside a management team notorious for secrecy.

I've found Lebrun to say some highly dubious shit lately.

Hockey needs a politifact-like resource. So many of these rumours/reports are guesswork presented as sourced material at best. At worst, you've got serious-insider-man on national television feeding hockey fans his cousin's wish list.

To be fair, Dregs did break the Babcock news (I think)

 

[Socreges]

Sure. I'm not saying they're never right or don't actually have some sources. Point is he'll more often be saying shit like this:

Darren Dreger – Verified account ‏@DarrenDreger

Toronto and Buffalo in bidding war for Babcock. No decision yet. Hearing Red Wings final offer was 5 years at $4 million per.
8:06 AM - 20 May 2015

Which, of course, turned out to be untrue.

 

[zroid]

This interview Babcock did on SN590 this afternoon is actually pretty great. Say what you want about his integrity in choosing Toronto or whatever, but he sounds pretty damn genuine to me.

If Leaf fans want a reason to get excited about Babcock, then watch it and you'll probably be pumped.
