    I can picture Babcock's first meeting with Leafs scouting department...

    Babs: "What are the plans for the draft?"
    Leafs: Just gonna hit square to sim through to then end then check their stats afterwards and trade for the good ones.

    Babs: Wait, what?
    Leafs: It works in NHL 15 and have you seen how realistic that is?

    Babs: Don't you, you know, scout players?
    Leafs: We used to, but this way frees up more time to play NHL 15...

    ... and then Babcock will go home and try and drown himself in swimming pool full of $100 bills.


    Just as an aside, I wonder if anyone has done any analysis of how the low Canadian dollar / high cost of living affects Babs purchasing power compared to the low cost of living in Buffalo.

    Yea it's just Mark Hunter. He calls himself the scouting dept to bypass regulations in the CBA.

    The best or good scouts can't be hired now. Too many draft secrets
