If that is the case, just do it and be done with it so everyone associated can move on.

What could KA have even done? (sorry, I don’t think I’ll have many of these left)

To me, it was Ulmark and relying on Levi to come in a year later. The beginning of the end of the goalie situation. Sure, Ulmark made the decision to leave, then he should’ve traded him at the deadline and got an asset. The not addressing the goalie situation was the last straw.

@Thornyit does matter... and I would take that instead of nothing.... I just think he needs to up and admit he has failed miserably and bring in a whole new crew before the season ends to evaluate this mess and decide when our future looks like... but we are all tired... and frustrated with this incompetence... some thing has to give.

His sources are saying this is the end for Adams

Is he in hospice?

I posted it before all my endless Eichel propaganda was black listed

I guess I just think it matters. I think a title change is indicative of an actual change in who’s behind the wheel day to day I’m so ready to be back

Tim Graham mentioned Adams is in His Final Hours on his Podcast

I always enjoy awful company names. Here's a few I see all the time: - Some big bank merger down here has created a bank named Truist. I don' have much to say about it, but it's a stupid name. - A bank up in Boston near my mother-in-law's is called Salem Five Bank. Each time I see it, I always think it sounds more like the group of people robbing the bank. Why is it always the banks with dumb names? - We have two garbage removal companies down here named Junk Doctors and Backwoods Junk Removal. The jokes write themselves with these names.

My source was probably Sabrespace. 😉 I'm pretty sure I read this way back when on Sabrespace. 😉

Want me to add the Power extension as a poll option?

You made the point that stuck in my craw. It sounds like audio, but not spelled like audio. Kind of sounded like they were saying Audicy…but maybe that’s a Rochester problem.

The Power contact. The Cozens contract. Eichel. 3 goalies.

It does but if Adams is POHO and Jarmo is GM to me thats the same two guys running the team... like getting your change 2 quarters or 5 dimes... yeah there is a difference... but it adds up the same... clearly what I am saying can be refuted... there are ways to make this impactful... but the bottom line is that if Pegula's idea of big change is to augment the roles of the 2 people in charge and promote a failed assistant coach after 14 years of being a laughing stock... I can only imagine the laughter gets louder... and the failure more pervasive...

https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/39216245/steve-staios-loses-interim-tag-named-senators-gm Adams as POHO will do a “search” for GM and find out he is the best candidate.

No, Adams has been filling that role and Terry has been enacting final say whenever he wants to pretend to himself that he cares Adams is probably *moving* to POHO. There’s no reason it would be a position that gives his strategies a second try. Otherwise what is the point? The shifting of Jarmo to GM suggests it’s his turn at the wheel and that the GM is the one steering the ship

What about Levi?

I think you are right, there. I don’t think “getting rid of Eichel” was a pillar of the actual plan - in fact I’d argue we know it wasn’t, considering the change of course for the Covid year. It simply became an accepted consequence of instituting the desired plan, which we saw the following year. To me it makes the idea “trading Eichel” is synonymous with the decision to rebuild re: the purposes of this poll even more apt, as it really was more so a fallout of that decision than something that was, as you point out, an actual bullet point of their plan they chose their long form rebuild over keeping Eichel. The “decision” to trade Eichel was inevitable once the plan was cemented. They should have chosen “Eichel” and the timeline, and roster building his presence suggested, but instead chose the path that had no expectations for the foreseeable future

They wanted it to be similar to "Odyssey" but they weren't going to be able to trademark that. And "Audacy" has similarities to "audio." Smart branding, IMO, even if they're annoying. All of the ads I hear have the AWD rather than the ODD sound on the first syllable.

I think this is bunk... and if it isnt its window dressing... promoting people like Appert and Keko internally, not doing a search, and not bringing in a trusted, tenured, respected Hockey mind that might start to break down our inability to trade for players because of NMCs as well as attract Free Agents... I also dont think another incestuous internal promotional escapade with KA getting promoted to POHO is going to retain players that we want to stay... if they blow this one... people are gonna want out...

How can KA's wyrd hinge on the next two gamezies when they have 363 games beforehand to scrutinize?
