Now we get to see what Sheldon Keefe can do.

Get it done Pegula!  

Make him HC and GM (if that's what he wants) give him total control, and pay him whatever he wants, then double it.

LET'S GO

Wonder what Mrs. Babcock thinks of Toronto shopping now.

I'm going to assume this is sarcasm. Please let it be. Babcock has been exposed.

[nfreeman]

Mrs. Babcock's shopping budget won't be affected a-tall.  Mike's still going to get the cash (almost said "Benjamins" but that's not correct here).

In a dark room somewhere, Mike Commodore is laughing quietly to himself as he fires up the twitter....

We should hire him as director of hockey ops

Or the next PR director. I would love to see all Sabres communications in the third person.

You think Keefe is going to drag those guys out of the mud?

A proactive in season change you say...but why? Matthews is only 22!!!!

Why not just wait till season’s end and use next year as as evaluation year for the new coach?

Be nice to have one of those right?

Babcock is definitely getting a job somewhere, just a matter of when/where now.

Yes, but Toronto was smart: they had THE in-demand new NHL coach standing by. Not too hard to make this move, actually.

I could see Minnesota firing BB and hiring MB in a heartbeat if he agreed to it beforehand.

[Brawndo]

They are going to completely roll over the Sabres next week. My hope was they would split the back to back, or The Leafs Players would tank the two games to get him fired then

Where there’s a will, there’s a way 

[darksabre]

And with that, the Concept of Babcock finally dies.

I do think the Leafs will be energized and doesn't favor us.

[Rico7]

Good. F him.
