Babcock ahead of Leafs vs. Rangers

Is the emphasis on structure as the team looks to hit the reset button?

No, I think the emphasis is on structure every day and being determined and being prepared. When I look at our Ottawa game and I look at the game in Chicago, to me we weren't prepared enough, weren't determined enough, weren't structured enough. As a team you are what you are but you've got to maximize the group and go from there.

Is it tougher to keep this a safe place for players closer to the deadline and after tough results?
