Playing for Mike Babcock also means vomiting from anxiety: Frankie Corrado’s experience
Auteur: Emily SmithThe story of “Mitch Marner’s list” when Marner arrived in Toronto, when the coach had him make a list to rank his teammates’ effort and it was publicly revealed, is a good example.
And that’s despite the fact that many people in the business talk to him behind closed doors.
Because it feels like he’s not coming back, it’s easier to stand up and denounce the hockey man’s behavior. That’s what many people do anonymously.
But it’s also what Frankie Corrado wasn’t afraid to do by naming himself. In a paper published on The Athletic website, the former Maple Leafs player shared his experience.
Fantastic work here by @RobsonDan and @KatieJStrang. https://t.co/1hvJH4dv5M

In the player’s eyes, Babcock was trying to create unease and get inside his players’ heads. And to think that before Corrado met Babcock, he was happy to be under him…
What we’ve heard from everyone is that Babcock didn’t treat players like humans. This cost him his reputation.
In short
– Chris Tanev, game-time decision.
DeBoer added there are some other game-time decisions, and lineup won’t be settled until after warmup

– Pierre Houde: his impact is immense.
Big congratulations to @PierreHoudeRDS for being selected 2024 recipient of Foster Hewitt Memorial Award.
Even as an “anglais,” it’s easy to appreciate Pierre’s brilliance. Sometimes I like to tune into RDS’ coverage of #GoHabsGo just to hear the magnificence of his call.
