Babcock Says Leafs' Performance At Home So Far Is Unacceptable.

"The Toronto Maple Leafs have one of the best home ice crowds in the NHL, unfortunately they haven't taken advantage of it this year so far. After playing four out of their first six games at home, the Leafs have a 1-2-1 home record to start the season.Head coach Mike Babcock just doesn't think it's acceptable. "We haven't looked after home ice like we want. You want to be automatic at home, you want the other team to know it's impossible to win in your building and that hasn't been the case."
A lot of fans would point to Babcock's obsession with line matching no matter what the score is as one of the main reasons the team is struggling at home.

#Leafs are 1-2-1 so far this season at home, which hasn't been sitting well with Mike Babcock: "We haven't looked after home ice like we want. You want to be automatic at home, you want the other team to know it's impossible to win in your building and that hasn't been the case."
