Sabres looking for Senior Advisor for Adams and Hockey Department

If you can’t envision the guy below Adams in a hierarchy, you are aiming too high re: candidate -

Eric Staal hired as a special assistant to Kevyn Adams
Thorny replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
The line isn’t “make the playoffs at some point before the world ends” Making the playoffs in year 6 not being enough isn’t moving the goalposts. Acting like making it in year 6 still meets criteria, however, is Adams HIMSELF said playoffs had to be made this year. He failed. You are moving the goalposts -

Sabres looking for Senior Advisor for Adams and Hockey Department
Thorny replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
It’s created an unaddressable conflict of interest for me, it’s so far gone: what could I possibly root for next year? The options have been dialed down to the sabres either missing the playoffs for a 15th straight year or the worst GM I’ve ever seen (all aspects included) being granted an extension. cant do it. That’s why I drew the line. Adams behaviour over the course of the last year has actually made it more clear -

There are rumours out there certain franchises are begging the likes of Holland to run their teams. He would never, ever have to lower himself to this Not in a million years under Adams -

Yes I am sure a position under Adams will attract the shiniest of candidates -

Should also be noted that if Terry had asked merely this question in his “meeting” with Adams, Adams would have been stumped and fired.
-
“You think Power is disappointing? You get on the ice. Skate. Score. I don’t see any goals”. utter nonsense verging on gaslighting. Adams is supposed to be a *professional*. They are supposed to be specially equipped (hypothetically!) to fixing these issues. “can you, not trained and adequately connected and compensated hockey fan o the message board do it? No? Check mate”

To everyone clamoring for the Sabres to trade the pick
Thorny replied to inkman's topic in The Aud Club
Why wouldn’t it be serious? Your non-defence defence of Adams on the lowest day for many fans wasn’t going to get a rebuttal? Haha Eichel and Reinhart deals are both terrible. The circumstances the GM helped create? Sure? Yes, bad trades, didn’t have to make them. Easy Nos there those are the two I started with Mittelstadt deal was next. He was really good here - our best forward statistically when we moved him. Byram hasn’t scratched that value here. Easy take back Malenstyn lol next. “Addition by subtraction ” re the cozens deal was always a cop out but, yes getting literally nothing wouldn’t be enough so I agree it depends on Norris. As of now it’s an exceptionally shaky return and is I’d imagine we’d have gotten more in the summer considering how mediocre the return seems, so there’s number 5. Hall and Staal can aren’t guys I want atall thats 7. -
Sabres make a change! Ed Gannon Strength and Conditioning Coach was let go
Thorny replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Has there ever been a GM so out of touch with the pulse of his own team, to a man, from day one of every season? To think he was hired on a culture change mandate -
The personal satisfaction he gets by simply refusing to engage with what everyone else is saying he HAS to do is the win. It’s Trumpian. don’t delete this post or whatever. That’s not political - it’s simply how he operates. people get that this is what’s happening, right? This isn’t hockey anymore.

Pegula is filthy rich. It’s probably out of spite. He wanted ROR traded because of a locker room comment. Do not overthink this that would be a massive mistake. It’s Terry Pegula. The minds of rich people. They do not deserve an iota of hockey analysis on this

History really is written by the winners. or, erased. Whichever.
