rumours that Hiller will be leaving too.
Very subtle way of thinning Babcock's influences.
Chi did this with Quenville, but just fired his asst. coaches.
the replacement coaches will be very telling on the length of leash left on Babcock's tenure
DJ Smith manned the D-core and PK for the Leafs. The PK was actually decent, but could have been better.
Honestly, I felt like after the season, the Leafs needed 2 new assistants anyways.

That's so weird. One assistant leaves so get rid of the bunch so the head coach doesn't have any of his guys left on staff... Awkward.

His contract was signed June 16th, 2015 for a duraction of 3yrs, 11months, 7 days. Which would expire tmo (today's his last day I think, depends if today counts. Either his last day under contract, or first day as a FA)
They have another Assistant (Andrew Brewer) who expires the same time as Hiller.

well... it could be more awkward... they could fire them all from under Babcock.
Babs has said repeatedly he hopes all his asst coaches become head coaches one day.
this strategy is much more subtly shortening the leash.
Should also help recruit asst coaches - believing they can grow and move on to a HC gig elsewhere.

Hiller expected to join the Preds already...
Leafs grant permission so Hiller can sign with another team before another candidate swoops in and takes the position
