Some wringing of hands amongst what passes for media types in TO about Your Leafs and the playoffs.  I mean, Babcock's absurd statements as to getting 6 pts out of 5-game segments as a means of getting enough pts to get a playoff spot, just dumb. 

You don't want to be out of the playoff race by Christmas, either, and maybe he thought he had to get a message to his players that this season, hey, it's not just about getting ice time, development and nothing else.

But the way he did it, this incredibly weird configuration/algorithm/pathway to the promised land, huge matzah ball.

Your Leafs were 9-13-5 after 27 games 1 yr ago, 23 pts, 15th in the East, -13 goal dif.  They've given up way more goals this season, their GAA bottom 5.  For those who think Anderson is the guy, his #s are inferior to Reimer's last season at this point.  Not saying Reimer is better than Anderson, just pointing out what the #s say head-to-head, so to speak.  Your Leafs, right now, don't know defence.
