I think he must be this guy. Brooklyn Nets

I guess after firing so many people they have to do some hiring this off-season. The Leafs have hired Dr. Jeremy Bettle as their Director of Sports Science and Performance.

Agreed. What I have read suggests that he would be doing really well just to live a day at home without pain. Of course he would like to play again, but it is over.

Fair enough. For that matter, Phil is also paid more than Babcock. I do not know what went on with Cassaday and why he was on the verge of being announced as Leiweke's successor, but it is being reported that it was a last minute compensation issue related to Babcock's contract. It raises an...

Star It is being reported that Cassaday bowed out after not being able to reach a settlement with the board on compensation. Apparently he was not happy with Babcock being the highest paid guy in the organization.

I agree. I think it is likely that he needs to be careful of what he says. If he ever indicated something to the effect of "I am done and will never be able to play again" he might not be able to continue to collect his salary. I read somewhere that if he has the surgery now it would save him...

Thanks. Looks like some of the episodes work and others are bad links, but I will take what I can get. Appreciate it.

Maybe my problem is that I just never watched Ovechkin closely enough before. But watching him in the NYI and the NYR series I believed that I was looking at a much more complete player - one willing to play a 200' game (pardon the cliche).

I would have thought so too, but I cannot find it. Either it is not out there or my Google skills are not what I thought they were.

Is this you being funny again?

Does anyone know where I can watch HBO's 24/7 (with Babcock)? I enjoyed watching Babcock in that series and would really like to watch it again.

I am not a Kessel fan at all. In fact for years I have wished they would unload him. I do not know whether he will stay in Toronto or not, but it is interesting to wonder whether a guy like Babcock can do for Kessel the same kind of thing that Trotz has done for Ovechkin.

Wow. Just wow.

Up until an hour ago I would have bet: 1. Buffalo 2. Wings 3. Any team other than Toronto 4. Toronto Shows why I don't bet I guess. If this is real then I am impressed with Shanny.

This suddenly got interesting. I was out of the loop on this thinking he was going anywhere but Toronto, but now.....

One thing is clear, and that is that the current power structure of Shanahan with Hunter & Dubas have weighed and judged the organization and found it to be lacking in almost every way and are now seeing to the rebuilding from the ground up. For that I am thankful.

Not really a surprise, but here it is anyway. Sportsnet

This is Phil's favorite time of the year, in fact, it doesn't get any better than this. One Year Ago By now he is fishing, playing ping pong and video games with his boy Bozie and doing all the other things that an $8 million a year NHL player loves to do at this time of the year.

"As far as having the patience to do what's needed to be done, yeah, you have to have a stomach in order to get through it in a place with this much passion. I have that stomach, and I can tell you the [Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment] board does. We've gotten excellent support from our...

How bad is the Marner injury?
