I still have nightmares about that series lol. It is definitely not the way Yzerman should have went out. To Edmonton's credit they really seemed unstoppable that year in the playoffs (until they lost Roloson in the SCF). I do not believe Babcock is a bad coach or anything, but he is definitely not the miracle worker he is made out to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More like the miracle worker the Leaf fanbase, and Toronto media made him out to be. Now both are on him - especially the fans...Some good material over on HF Boards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And my response was “you guys are in for a disappointment if you get your hopes up that much” My bet was the Leafs will not win the cup under Babcock’s current contract. I have 4 years left in it.

Unbelievable... I have the same dumb friends that were saying the same dumb things, and no joke, I made that exact same bet with them... Since then (after last year's elimination), I also made a bet that the Wings will win a Cup before the Leafs... 1 F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, if that becomes true, then the other part will as well, because I don't think there's much of a chance that the Wings will win the Cup in the next 4 years. It's possible I suppose, but highly unlikely. How amazing would that be though, to rub in the faces of Leafs Nation... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
