Toronto Maple Leafs: No Excuse for Benching Jason Spezza in Game One
After a full summer of controversy surrounding the Mitch Marner negotiations, the Toronto Maple Leafs were ready to just play hockey.
At least that’s what I thought before the Toronto Maple Leafs head coach, Mike Babcock started pouring more controversy into a pot that just simmered down.
“We’re just giving (Jason) Spezz a little more time on the penalty-kill,” says Babcock after Wednesday’s morning skate, “I talked to him quite a bit about this and what were doing, so were on the same page moving ahead.”
Are you both really on the same page though?
