Babcock laments Maple Leafs playing like 'kids' vs. Caps

The Washington Capitals took the Toronto Maple Leafs to school Saturday night.

The Capitals steamrolled the Maple Leafs 5-2 in a Stadium Series game at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium and, to Maple Leafs head coach Mike Babcock, his team sure didn't look its age.

"They look at us and they still think we're kids," Babcock said. "It looked like we were kids here tonight. I thought they smacked us around and forechecked us. I didn't think we executed at all, I didn't think we played fast."

The Maple Leafs' dismal display means the team will practice tomorrow in Buffalo despite a late flight, according to TSN's Kristen Shilton.

"Obviously, we've got to regroup," said Babcock. "We'll be practicing tomorrow. The work we didn't put in today we'll be putting in tomorrow and get back on track here."

The Maple Leafs face the Sabres on Monday, when they'll look to halt a three-game losing streak.
