Mike Babcock Post Game, Leafs 5 vs. Red Wings 0: “Mikheyev looks like a real hockey player”

On whether this is an indication the club is set up well for Wednesday’s opener:

Well, we’re healthy, and that’s important, besides Dermy and Hyms. I thought we made some progress here in exhibition if not for more than just getting to know the players and getting the handle on the bench and how to use certain guys. I learned a lot more about Barrie and Ceci and Kerfoot and Mikheyev and Korshkov and all of the people we’ve never seen before. It is time to get at her.

On the team’s depth:

What I’ve learned is we made some real good additions, obviously, this summer.
