Mirtle: Mike Babcock sends Maple Leafs a message after lacklustre loss

I think it's time for the translation game again with Mike Babcock.

This is where the Maple Leafs coach says something to the media, and we do our best to decode his message, digging deep by peeling the layers of the onion for the true meaning of his words.

On Wednesday, that should be easier than normal, given Toronto lost 6-3 to the Devils and steam was coming out of the coach's ears most of the game.

Their first loss of the season – to a team that finished 28th last season – was not one he enjoyed being a part of.
