After signing Mike Babcock to a ten year deal to be the suit behind the bench that will instill a winning system into a group of gradually less rag-tag bunch of individuals, the Toronto Maple Leafs have dished out not a single contract over two years.
Do they have commitment issues? I’d like to hope so.
Everything we’ve seen from the Toronto Maple Leafs front office suggests they aren’t jumping the gun on anyone – not even their best current NHL player, Nazem Kadri.
That’s a good thing.
Too often we’ve seen this franchise shell out major contracts only to be laughed at months later.
