I KNEW IT
Well I suspected it. Nearly two months ago I said, out loud, to several people, not just one or two, but SEVERAL, that if any coach could step into that hornet's nest in TO and have a shot at righting the Leafs' ship it would be Babcock. I just wasn't sure he would WANT to. (I mean why would anyone? Babcock was going to get paid massive bucks no matter where he went, so why not somewhere that isn't Toronto?)
Mclellan was my other guy, but I had him pegged as ending up in Edmo, which of course he did.
As I recall, everyone I said the above to disagreed with me, said it'll never happen. People need to learn to stop disagreeing with me. My hockey pool picks suck but my predictions over the past while have all been spot on.
