Go back and watch the Blue and Gold of when he was hired. He states he doesn’t know what he’s doing so he has a little book with him and he says he asks a lot of questions and writes the answers down in the book. It was embarrassing at the time and hasn’t improved.

It seems he wasn’t allowed. That was the point of Pegula flying into Montreal to give his “The answer is in the room” speech. That was the “you guys figure it out I’m not signing off on any deal right now” speech.

Doing nothing when your team loses 13 games in a row is inexcusable. Nobody can tell me otherwise, your job as a GM is to put together a winning roster. You had to know losing 13 games would derail your entire season, his excuse was nobody was willing to come here yet we traded Cozens for Norris at the deadline. Adams is terrible at his job and now we have to suffer another season with this clown.

It's a big if but if Norris can be more durable, this trade will be a positive deal. And moving Cozens was the right thing to do for the player. He needed a change of scenery.

That wasn't the trade. You may not think much of Docker but he's an NHL player.

You laid out the situation that he is now in. It's like a student who doesn't go to class and when he does, he doesn't pay attention. So when the finals arrive he panics and is forced to resort to all night study seasons and cheat sheets hidden in his sleaves in order to pass the test. I diverge with most of the participants here in that they are demanding desperate moves to compensate for the GM's prior lassitude. In my view, that would be a horrible mistake. It's time that this archaically operated franchise start acting more judiciously. A lot of action doesn't necessarily translate into productive action. The biggest impact moves that this front office can do this offseason is upgrade the goalie position and get a better mix with the blueline. I'm not suggesting that the forward lines don't need to be modified but the priority should be at the goalie and defender position.

The man is simply in over his head. A GM is supposed to have a broader perspective in evaluating his team. He's more of a bean counter type person who is looking at transactions as singular deals instead of looking at how the pieces fit together, reinforcing one another. It's more than adding talent----it's about building a coherent roster. It's beyond his capacity. He's a C student in an advanced physics course.

I just think he’s an aging, declining diva WR but you never know I suppose

Can people please stop using these ***** RUMORZZZZ social media grifter accounts that constantly take things wildly out of context and in many cases outright fabricate things?

What do you think trading Cozens and a 2nd rounder (another stroke of brilliance because it makes even the thought of an offer sheet impossible) for Gimpy Norris was?

Not sure Pegula has that championship game in her, she's very very good, but that next level in tennis is so hard to achieve. She's very likeable at least, unlike her father 😂

It's time for an actual rule change for playoff cap circumventing. Enough is enough already 😂🤣

Here we go😁 He goes on LTIR for the season, Vegas signs Marner and at playoff time he miraculously recovers and plays. Rinse and Repeat for the Knights.

Those were good deals. The problem with Adams is that your house is leaking and you have to fix 5 things to stop it and Adams will fix 2 of the things and say “Mission Accomplished”

The story was the players wanted him gone and they convinced Jack to go in and drop the hammer to management because he was the one they would listen to.

Fair enough. I don’t mind getting rid of guys but I want 23-30 year old guys coming back that can have immediate impacts. Misa and Schaefer will be very good players. I don’t think those deals you proposed get you them.

Authorities in New York City report that lab-tested samples have very little or no cocaine. They say there are record numbers of overdoses and there is no way to know exactly what is in pink cocaine. Because the drug usually contains a mix of uppers and downers, it is sometimes called a speedball. Authorities are trying to educate potential users who may not know how different ketamine is from cocaine. Cocaine is a stimulant, and ketamine is a sedative-hallucinogenic anesthetic. It does not mix well with alcohol. Similar to ecstasy, tusi can cause an intense feeling of happiness and an increase in energy, making it popular at electronic music parties. In addition, it can induce sudden changes in mood, from euphoria to anxiety and paranoia. In addition to anxiety and paranoia, use of this drug can cause psychotic episodes and flashbacks, in which the user relives the drug's effects long after use. This could explain Diggs drop in production and his sideline antics.

Adams has backed himself into a corner. By not making needed moves in years prior, he has put himself in a spot where he has to make moves to save his job. And the league knows it.

There is something oddly true in what I think is a mistyped word.

It cannot be prospects only. There is no room on the roster for roster players coming in if roster players aren’t also going out. I am sure KA is trying to move the Beck Malenstyn’s of the roster thinking adding Isac Rosen will make it irresistible to a team like Dallas for Robertson (yeah they might fall for it LOL). But is probably going to be more like Peterka + Kulich or that big russian defenseman, whatshisface + Byram to make good things happen.

Is the ice they skate on wet? 🤷‍♀️

One of the philosophies of Kevyn Adams has been: don’t panic and make a desperation move. And here he is with one year left on his contract, and 5 straight years out of the playoffs overlayed on a league record 14 years of failure, and the Sabres can’t make change without trading roster players because they are up against the cap, and the league knows that he is under pressure to make bold moves. By repeatedly failing to make needed moves, Adams has backed himself into a corner.

Stop trying to blame fans for Adams incompetence.

#1 reason Kevyn keeps ppl around, likability. Because Kevyn isn't cut out for this job.

No but they opposite can be true. The whole "Adams overvalues his players" thing. Imagine you're a GM of a team targeting a top Sabres player/prospect. You essentially offer a bag of pucks hoping to swindle Adams who you see as inexperienced. But he doesn't bite. What do you do next? You run to the Dregers, Friedmans or Seravellis with the hot tip that Adams overvalues his players because you know the fanbase will go bonkers, and maybe put pressure on the Sabres. You'll notice we don't hear that trope anymore. As to your point, I don't think the Sabres talk to any press. Note how no one knew about the Kekalainen hire before it happened. Not Dregers. Not Paul Hamilton.
