Why would the Leafs fire him when the blueprint is only partially completed?
There is zero case against Babcock this year. It's not even worth discussing.

Back on topic.

I never said fire him.

Every coach has a leash. The wheels eventually fall off the bus. I am only saying if it does happen in the future, the evidence will be cited that he things he did this year may have been the cause.

If you read up there, half of the issues have been rectified and I am just curious why some of his decisions are made.

I agree with most of the OP.
I don't watch as many games as most of you probably do but I have seen about 50 games last 2 years and my problem with Babcock is that the Leafs get out hustled/ out worked about 75 % of the games I have seen. Other teams are better disciplined, have a better game plan and often play above their level while the Leafs seem to be playing shinny most of the time. I would like to see their record without OT wins. I think they would be a lot closer to 500 than most people think. Bottom line is they seldom play to where their talent is OR we are seriously misjudging the talent. Or they don't play as well as a team as the other top teams. Either way you look at it makes Babcock look bad. Let's hope they can get past Boston and make a run, Anderson will have to steal a series if they want to go far. If they get knocked out first round I hope Babcock gets fired.

I said back in Oct/ Nov. they are still first maybe second round team at best.

They have talent but still lack that tough playoff grit

They are playing the same way as they were in November - c'mon some of this gameplay should have been corrected by the coaching staff after 60 friggin games.!!

Babs has won some championships but inherited some of the teams he won with.

Dubas did nothing of substance to stiffen this lineup. All Babs has is speed, that's what's he's playing.

At this point, I'd say that it is still basically Lou's team.
