A couple of weeks ago, the Leafs were the laughing stock of the NHL when they hired Chayka.
Today #LetsGoOilers took their place thru the Cassidy "leak", having to fire Knoblauch because of it, and now, considering hiring Babcock as the new coach.

@JeffMarek July 11th of last year, I snapped. I had made a decision to end my life.
Incredibly, I had two guardian angels step in and lead me on a long path towards getting me to a place of both help and hope. I'm taking life one day at a time.
One of those people is @SameHere_Global.
@JeffMarek Talking about it should be encouraged. However I have no idea what I would say other than it gets better but who am I to say that to someone who’s in a dark place? I pray for those who are in that position to find strength 🙏🏽
@JeffMarek@PeterGalanos Jeff, please reach out to @SameHere_Global and speak with Eric. He's worked in both the NBA and NHL and would be a tremendous interview on this subject!
Claude Lemieux - I worked with him in a Phoenix when he oversaw the Roadrunners of the ECHL. No one is immune to mental health challenges and even suicide. I see so many saying - “he looked so strong and happy with the torch in Montreal.”
How one looks on the outside can often have nothing to do with how they feel on the inside. And suicide is most often not a planned out choice but an overwhelm of the nervous system leading to impulsive actions. So sad.
@JasonGregor Outside of Cassidy, only one coach that you mentioned in your article impresses me. That's Todd Nelson.
The guy has won as a head coach in the AHL several times with a team that had many recalls to its NHL club (Washington) during his tenure.
He should be given an interview.
