Babcock was just using the Sabres to drive the price up. Toronto is so desperate...at least 5 years away from being a middling team

Yeah, after seeing what a cock he is, I'm happy he went there. I hope he enjoys being raked over the coals by the media up there that reports on every fart made by anyone loosely connected with the Maple Laughs. But for $8 million guaranteed, I'm sure he'll be fine. He turned down more money here if you consider the exchange and taxes. I think the real breaking point was that Babcock wanted the power of a GM without any of the accountability...Comment

Completely. I know the Sabres offer was pretty close to that and the team here is PIISSSEEDDD because they think he acted sort of like a douche...

I guess Jon Bon Jovi is the official blowjob concierge of Rogers Sports and talked to Babcock.Comment

I always thought he was arrogant and most good coaches have that trait, watching this all unfold showed me he is just an asshole. I don't mind that he took a ton of money, by all means he has that right, but say "I'm going to the highest bidder". Buffalo dropped out of the bidding this morning and were willing to pay him a mint. For a coach that supposedly wants to win he left a team with the longest playoff streak in sports, turned down a team loaded with young talent in Muffalo, and chose a train wreck of a team.Comment
