No surprise here. We all know Nonis and Horachek are sitting ducks and just waiting for the axe to fall. Unfortunately the 2 uncoachable players Phil Kessell and Dion Phaneuf are going to stay for another season as nobody would want to pick up their high salary. Not sure anything will change unless the Leafs can find a sucker GM(McT perhaps) to take Dion and another sucker GM to take Kessell or Leafs management just decide to dump both of them and pay them millions of dollars for not playing.
I am sure we will start seeing some changes in another teams too soon. San Jose will probably fire both GM Doug Wilson and HC Todd MacLellan or just one. Flyers will probably fire Craig Berube, Boston might get rid of their GM. So, Leafs will have a few options with the GM unless they are really pursuing Babcock to become GM and HC.
