You forgot the bow!

Terry is not cheap? 😂

If you'd hire them if they weren't former Sabres, fine.

Norris is recovering from “illness”

Adams has a younger cousin who supposedly won 3 cups in a row with the Sabres in franchise mode in NHL 2025. Could be a dark horse pick. That’s the rumor anyway

So... gonna guess Norris won't play and they want a center.

Like Erik Karlsson, I think Quinn Huges is a bit overrated, even with his Norris Trophy, his game lacks on the defensive side. He is flashy and he is fantastic on the offensive part of the game. I see that. When it’s playoff time I prefer defensemen like Ekblad and Slavin.

You are forgetting about the genius we have running the franchise. Maybe they were smart enough to keep him with the team and only sending him down on paper

It's happening. Don't resist.

I found this from an old HF board thread in 2023. Dahlin - 5 inches, 22 pounds, shot velocity, reach, physicality Quinn - brain size, edgework, vision If Hughes is worth 4 prime assets is Power worth 3 if he were on the block? Not that I am advocating for it but I think given what teams are willing to pay for a PP QB his value is higher than what many might think it is.

Oh, no!

If they wanted to hire younger up-and-coming coaches, my choices would be Michale Peca and Jay McKee.

The POHO option bothers me because Adams can and will influence Terry. If he can do it from his Business Admin job, he can do it as a fake POHO. He needs to go.

It’s ridiculous to have these guys fly all the way to the west coast just for one game. They could have given Kuntar another game then make the move when they get home.

I’m not even holding out hope for an outright firing. My top hope right now is: ”relieved of GM duties, reassigned to another spot in the organization (ie the old future considerations)”. Failing that it’s: ”relieved of GM duties, reassigned to an advisor/senior advisor role within the organization.” After that is: ”Adams promoted to POHO, so and so takes over as GM.” …which, yes, I’ll still accept as a win because it’s a made up title and aside from the owner things clearly run through the GM, here.

I find it absolutely hilarious they may have snuck in an extension and not announced it out of fear. Would explain why this leaked, people in the org itself are done with this weasel

A clandestine contract extension would make this saga even better. Ican’t wait to hear what Adams new job is. I’m gonna bet he gets promoted.

The Pegula organization represents institutional fraud. It never ends!

Won’t be over until it’s over Madness

I don’t consider Hughes a Dman even though he won a Norris. It’s the Art Ross trophy for Dmen. I don’t think we’ll ever see a Rod Langway type win it again but I prefer an all round Dman to a rover. An example is Doughty in his prime. He would lead the offense, hit, block shots and take on the opponents’ toughest matchups. Hughes puts up excellent offensive numbers and is a PP QB you dream of. He looks like Bryson, in his own end without the puck.

Who ?

There is no JR. Jarmo last name is Kekalainen, not Routsaleinen. I don’t know who Ruff reports to. No one does apparently. It almost like Adams announced a coach search for an experienced NHL coach and Ruff just showed up so they hired him. Makes a great sit com skit. Adams interviewed him and it went kind of like the Costanza job interview … “ Lindy, I want you to have this job, of course… oh wait, I’ve got to take this call now, good seeing you Lindy. … “. So Lindy just shows up and both Terry and Kevyn think the other person hired him. Lindy takes the small office, he gets the Cozens file, and he is off and running.
