I think Power gets blamed on this board too much. BUT, I think his play has regressed a bit in the last 2 weeks. Earlier in the year, I thought he got blamed for too much that wasn't his fault as I saw some improvments in his own end, but even I'm getting worried about his play this year. As for the overall team defense, I do think they are a bit better overall compared to last year, supported by the analytics. Now, that is compared to LAST year that they are better, thats not a high bar to clear. They can be better than last year and still not be very good.

Whether they wanted this story out there (a leak) or not, they have to do something soon if they plan on doing it at all, right? I don't think the questions on this will go away...and if they drag this out it will do nothing more than make a segment of your fanbase go from hopeful all the way to resentful again.

Buys them some time IF they are trying to trade a goalie. -
Timmins & bottom 4 D have been bad (Timmons playing up on 2nd pair - he is 3rd pair). TP, Adams’ & FO ineptitude have put a pox on the House of ⚔️. Low trade volume: Adams inability to make ANY DECISION, big trades, etc., compared to peer GMs (Insert 🌴&💰excuse here). Adams is laughed at & not respected by the rest of the NHL. He should take his Stanley cup ring and go….

That's not a resolution. That's a respite.

Nah, that would be signing Kuntar. The Buffalo boy signing the Buffalo boy as his last official act. Poetic. 😉

I voted palm trees and taxes. Only because it signaled to me that he was a man of excuses and a piss poor leader. Yhe statement wasnt the worst move he made, in the sense of its direct effect on the ice, but it was the worst overall because it illuminated just how unqualified he was for the position.

Great story. I once was being interviewed for a job. He brought up my job history and the stepping stone jobs that I had when young. I made the point to him that there is no such thing as a menial job. That whatever job one had was to be done well and with pride. He was impressed. However, although the interview went well, I wasn’t hired.

And the fans should never have accepted it.

Too bad, kinda. Hope he's OK. He was a very good GM for a long time. And he said something profound that has stuck with me. At his presser after firing Lindy, he was asked if he was mad at the players. "Hate is a poison you take and expect the other person to die." Paraphrase, but I think I have it.
-
Darcy (and Lindy) were sacrificial lambs. The team was struggling to make the playoffs. The core was deemed fatally flawed. The prospect cupboard was bare. The fans were almost as angry as they are now. Those two were let go to appease the fanbase. Period.

It was Roma's Restaurant in Genesee in Cheetowaga, just west of Union. Boss didn't charge for broken plates. I didn't break any most nights but I broke a few. I could load a tray just about that fast too. I got the job because a guy, Jeff, I rode the bus to school with worked there and he heard I was looking for a job. They had an opening and the owner told him to bring me along on Friday and he would show me the ropes. I got there and the busboy was a no show so they sent Jeff home to change into busboy clothes and fill in for him. Before he left he showed me how the machine worked. It was busy, especially for a Friday night and I got slammed. I couldn't look up until about 9:30. I saw the boss and asked him if I was hired and he just grinned back. I worked there two years before leaving for college. Learned how to make pizzas, salads and sandwiches too. I made $2.70 an hour to start which I thought was pretty good money- a whole nickel over minimum wage! Over a decade later I went there with my family to show them where I used to work. The owner remembered me and comped the whole meal. That was cool.
